TamTu

Hey guys! A few weeks ago we released episode 15, the anniversary episode. It started off with a notice to stay tuned for an important announcement regarding the show~!

So here it regretfully is: HS/SS is going on an unfortunate hiatus for the time being. Real-life events have taken priority over the show on top of ourselves being unable to schedule recording sessions accordingly, so we have decided to let it go for the time being. This isn’t the end of He Says, She Says, perhaps an oppertunity in the future will present itself for us to pick up the show sooner than later!

Sooraya and I are very thankful for your support over the year (and then some), in both the community forums and your added creativity to the love we all share for FFXI.

For those that care, I’ll still be helping out over at Limit Break Radio, so you haven’t heard the last of me yet. And at the risk of sounded like a broken record, I want to tie up loose ends here. Who knows, Vana’diel Says 1 might get released after all :p

Either way, thanks again for all your support; do stick around on the forums, wouldn’t wanna become strangers now!

Signing off,

TamTu and Sooraya.

Before hitting the anniversary party in Kokba Hostel, Sooraya and TamTu record an episode at the Whitegate Mog Houses with a special guest, as well with some uninvited ones…

A/N: Our apologies for the delay and cancelling of the anniversary week! We’ll have an important announcement following in the next few weeks, so stay tuned!

Better late than never I say! We apologize for the delay, but we got our issues resolved and present to you the first present to you listeners as year-long fans of the show. You’ve heard the origin story of how TamTu and Sooraya met during the show many times before; long before we actually started the podcast this project was in the making. Unfortunately, we don’t forsee any other follow-ups to this in the near future, but it should hopefully be enjoyable!

Hyozan Banner

The story of TamTu and Sooraya is entwined deeply in that of Hyozan. This is the beginning of their adventure together. This is their story. This the beginning of Hyozan’s Legacy.

Before you actually listen to this 20-minute audio drama, check out the following prologue pieces! Prologue 1 covers TamTu as a young orphan of war, prologue 2 tells the story of Sooraya’s first steps as a Warrior years later. The last prologue story actually happens during the course of the main story!

PROLOGUE 1: A White Mage is born.

10 years ago… West Ronfaure… An Elvaan knight-in-training, Ballie is travelling the forests of Ronfaure with her sister Mikaela. They stumble upon a torn down cottage, finding the bodies of a boy…and his mother. Download here (MP3, 1.8 MB) Running time: 2:00mins

PROLOGUE 2: Destined.

Recent past… Following the death of her father, the young warrior Sooraya tries to become stronger, living up to the name of the great hero Rostam. She dives head-deep, maybe too deep into Ranperre’s tomb… Download here (MP3, 1.8MB) Running time: 1:58mins

PROLOGUE 3: SHEEP.

Present Time A young Taru wandering the fields of La Theine Plateau is training to become a powerful black mage. He successfully defeats an Orc and enjoys the spoils of victory. Unfortunately…it’s short-lived. Download here (MP3, 1.5MB) Running time: 1:36mins

So like… that nerd Tamtu has mentioned me a few times on his show, talking about total artsy things. And like… he told me about the fanart-contest and I listened to his episode where he critiqued the winners.

What a total geek. The place needs like… my amazing expertisement, so I totally visited the forums and saw there’s more artists there too. I’ll be helping out that dork to improve his totally adorable attempts at art and give him, and like, anyone else my exquisite opinion!
