Doesn't speak too highly of the rest of us that we could only hang back and watch while the Four Lords did all the hard work. But hey─we've got a few more millennia till we have to do this again, right? Time enough for me to train that I can do my bit when the time comes!

Lore

"Is emptiness form, or is form emptiness? Either way, I am still here and hitting you!"

An auspice who has lived some two millennia, Qitian Dasheng is the former disciple of another auspice who created the tamate-bako of geomancy. After his master's death, the monkey took it upon himself to safeguard the relic sequestered deep within Swallow's Compass, the grand mausoleum of King Ganen. Qitian's name is perhaps more akin to a title, for it can also be translated as, "Great Sage, Heaven's Equal."

— Encyclopaedia Eorzea Volume II, p. 121
