I remember finding a tweet a few weeks back stating that "Flow" is Venat's "thank you" to the "I'm sorry" that is "Answers". I think about that a lot. I'm sorry that you've had to suffer, but thank you for still being here after all this time.

Fun fact : Amanda really struggle doing this song because she kept in tears and really emotional when reaching the end. I really love this song so much, i really losing my friends during these years and really far distant with my mom 😭😭

Personally the interpretation I got was that Hydaelyn was singing to the warrior of light. Her closest friend and the one she put all of her hope in. Finally greeting them once more for the first time in many an age.

It's funny to me how much after so long being called the Mother Crystal how much Venat/Hydaelyn feels like a Mother. Nurturing and Enduring, A Mother to the whole world and one whom we never get a chance to see but was always close by. A lot of self sacrificing love, wise someone who knows the miracle of life and the burden of all its sorrows. I like that about her.

Cherish your mom if she's still here, and if she isn't - cherish even more the memories you have of her.

Eh I disagree I feel flow is directed directly at WoL

Flow shows just how powerful the story really was, even in its humble beginnings.

I love that the tempo of the song is that of a lullaby, calming, comforting really brings home that feeling of sinking into a rest (into the etherial sea).

This pretty much lines up with how I interpreted it...but when you said "the soul of a little blue bird", the tears started welling up.

This is it. This is the song that sealed the deal for me, that Final Fantasy 14 would forever remain a part of me - even when I unsub, even when the game inevitably ends. I still can't stop myself from tearing up when I hear this, barely holding back tears.

Meaning of Flow's lyrics: "Emotional daaaamage"

Honestly, it could be interpreted as many things, but I chose to believe it's a song for the Warrior of Light, meant for that day when they inevitably find themselves in the aetherial sea once more. When I hear it, I imagine WoL finally at peace after a long life of hardship, reunited with Hades and Hythlodaeus, along with all those waiting for them.

It's a lullaby to the dead. A song sung to every soul finally going to their rest.

honestly the song flow and the events surrounding it just hit so much harder because the game is an mmo. an mmo's story is constantly continuing. even in heavensward, stormblood, and shadowbringers Venat/Hydaelyn may not have played much of a role or been seen often if at all but, the player ALWAYS knew she was there, watching over the WoL and protecting them and eitherys until the time is right. now the player while they may not consciously think about it, knows that from now on, venat is gone. she will never come back, that void will not be filled and all that remains of her are memories to be cherished. that thought will be in the back of everyone's minds and it really hits home because it can really feel like you've lost a loved one.

Dammit, I wasn't expecting to cry as soon as I wake up and seeing this video, but I am so happy to....

damn i couldn't help but cry watching this video

Just got back from Fan Festival. Hearing Amanda perform this in person was soul shattering.

Bad enough this video had me bawlin my eyes out- ya reaaaally had to add salt into the wound with that last bit, didnt ya???😭😭😭

This song always chokes me up. It's wonderful to find such meaning in a song. To hear your woes and worries answered. To think someone was there to catch them at the end.

This was really nice. The last line definitely made me tear up a bit. I think it fit's a lot for the stong to be directed to her.
