Aparently we're to figure out what this means:

Quote:
Ne'er til land consumes sun can sea bear moons.
Heavens spew crimson flame, hells seep black dooms.
Stray seeds quicken in ash's grey embrance.
Valiant blades forged under the twelve's good grace


I'm supposing its some location we are to go to.
The first line sounds like we're only to go there at nighttime.
The rest sounds liek some sort of vulcano, although i dont believe any exist in the terrain as far as i'm aware.
And I'm sure the bunny hats have something to do with it too.

The sun can only be eclipsed by the moon, or (in FF terms) a closer as of yet unknown planet. If the sun were to be hidden in an extended eclipse, the moon would also be darkened.

If it means the sea could not possibly reflect the moon's perfection without the blunting influence of a darkened sun, then it might make sense.

Stray seeds being quickened in "ash's embrace" would appear to mean some kind of darkness, twilight, or like you said, a volcanic ash.

The sky flames and hell dooms no gahdamn idea.

YOSHIIIIIDAAAAAAAA!!!

Meteor, omg!

Ne'er til land consumes sun can sea bear moons.
- Any sort of ash/debris in the sky. Impact/Volcano could cause this, as larges cases of either does put a bunch of debris in the sky that affects sunlight and alters the climate.

Heavens spew crimson flame, hells seep black dooms.
- Eh... Not sure. Anything entering the atmosphere burns. No clue on dark/black stuff coming up from the ground, though? Oil? Lol

Stray seeds quicken in ash's grey embrance.
- Common practice to control burn land in order to get nitrates and useful crap back into the ground. Seeds do germinate/grow better after land has been burned.

- Lim does something here.
