-Ava arrived in Gridania approximately three years following the calamity. While eager to begin her search for Bahamut, she quickly came to realize that dragons were feared by much of the Eorzean population, most seen more as nuisances than forces begetting worship, especially following Bahamut's involvement in the calamity. Thus, she refrained disclosing her worship of dragons and conducted most of her search in secret. While hunting for leads for her mission, she came across the Scions of the Seventh Dawn, an organization which seemed to have some connection to the calamity. Thus, in order to gain more information, she joined their ranks.+Ava arrived in Gridania approximately three years following the calamity.

-  * Son boy son boy + 
-  * Sormr :) +Ava joining the Scions finally paid off once she heard word of Alisaie looking into a fragment of Dalamud where Bahamut may rest. She eagerly joined the covert expedition, pursuing the truth alongside the young elezen with an almost manic fervor. As they continued, however, the two discovered more and more horrifying truths which took a toll on them both, especially for Ava who was forced to raise her spear against the imprisoned dragons within. Upon learning of Bahamut's nature as a primal and the endless suffering caused by his existence, she took on the penultimate sin of deicide, one which weighed heavy on her shoulders for the following years.  
-  * Ysayle,,,,+ 
 +One brief joy Ava experienced following that trauma was meeting G'raha Tia during an expedition of the Crystal Tower. His quixotic demeanor and short stature set off a motherly instinct within her, much to his chargin. The two bonded over the expedition, only for her to lose the boy she came to see as a son when he followed his destiny and resolved to lock himself within the tower. 
 + 
 +Following these tragic eventsAva was in a state of crisisdesperate for direction. Upon hearing word of a faction of heretics who worshipped dragons and Saint Shivashe ravenously pursued the cult and became captivated by their leaderLady Iceheart -- A charismatic woman whose ideals lined up with her own, similarly gifted with the echo. Sympathetic to their cause, Ava discreetly went against her duties as a Scion of the Seventh Dawn and helped obscure their activities.  
 + 
 +After advice from Iceheart to visit the Keeper of the Lake, Ava met Midgardsormr, the all-powerful Father of Dragons. Ava's sympathy to the dravanians' cause and role as Hydaelyn's champion intrigued him, and thus Midgardsormr bound them with a covenant, resolving to judge her worth -- Placing whether he would join Nidhogg's war on Ishgard upon her shoulders. Her interactions with him helped Ava view the heretics' actions more objectively, giving her the resolve to take down Ysayle's primal form of Shiva.

-Son boy son boy son boy+Quickly realizing that the Exarch is the very son she thought had been lost to fate, Ava followed along with his scheme, trusting his judgement. While she never confronted him on this fact directly, she left many hints that she knew of his identity. 
  
 With G'raha and Alisaie's help, Ava was finally able to set Tiamat free. This achievement has given Ava greater hope for the recovery of her homeland. As Tiamat now has need of her power again, Ava draws less strength from her from this point on. With G'raha and Alisaie's help, Ava was finally able to set Tiamat free.

 **SOULMATES IN EVERY SENSE OF THE WORD.** Midgardsormr and Ava are bound by covenant -- one initially formed so Midgardsormr could judge whether she was worthy of Hydaelyn's blessing, but now their bond runs much deeper than even that of a pact. Midgardsormr has borne witness to every vice Ava has to bear -- her wrath, her hypocrisy, and most personally her ceaseless flirtation -- and yet he fully trusts her with his strength, trusts her to defend his children.  **SOULMATES IN EVERY SENSE OF THE WORD.** Midgardsormr and Ava are bound by covenant -- one initially formed so Midgardsormr could judge whether she was worthy of Hydaelyn's blessing, but now their bond runs much deeper than even that of a pact.

 Midgardsormr indulges Ava just enough once he deemed her worthy, and while he does not realize it yet -- and perhaps will not come to terms with until long after her death -- is that he loves her. Deeply, truly, just as one of his own children loved Shiva.  Midgardsormr indulges Ava just enough once he deemed her worthy, and while he does not realize it yet -- and perhaps will not come to terms with until long after her death -- is that he loves her.
