In the bustling realm of Eorzea, nestled within the city-state of Ul'dah, there exists a clandestine Company known as the Silver Hand. While publicly presenting themselves as a charitable organization, they operate with the cunning and secrecy reminiscent of a well trained rogue. Led by the enigmatic Primarch, the Silver Hand extends its influence through various legitimate and less savory enterprises, all the while harboring a dark obsession with the forbidden powers of the Void.Behind closed doors, the Silver Hand conducts extensive research into the mysteries of the Void, seeking to unlock its arcane secrets and harness its unimaginable power for their own gain. Under the guise of scholarly pursuits, they delve into ancient tomes and forbidden rituals, pushing the boundaries of their understanding and risking the very fabric of reality itself.The members of the Silver Hand are a diverse cast of characters, each bringing their own unique skills and motivations to the table. From skilled swordsmen and cunning rogues to powerful mages and influential politicians, the Free Company is a melting pot of ambition and intrigue.But with great power comes great danger, and the Silver Hand treads the Abyss carefully to avoid the eyes or ire of forces beyond their control. As they delve deeper into the darkness of the Void, they find themselves walking a razor's edge between ultimate power and utter destruction. Will they succeed in their quest for mastery over the Void, or will they be consumed by the very forces they seek to command? Only time will tell their true Fates.Within the hidden chambers of the Silver Hand's headquarters, a sprawling labyrinth of ancient corridors and secret laboratories, the members of the Company tirelessly pursue their research into Void technologies. Led by a council of esteemed scholars and mages, they delve into the darkest depths of forbidden knowledge, seeking to unlock the secrets of the Void and bend its powers to their will.Their research is multifaceted, spanning across various disciplines and methodologies. Arcane scholars pore over ancient tomes and grimoires, deciphering cryptic texts and unraveling the mysteries of the Void. Alchemists and engineers work tirelessly to develop new technologies and artifacts imbued with Void energy, harnessing its chaotic power for practical applications.One of their most ambitious projects is the creation of Void-infused weaponry and armor. Through a combination of ancient rituals and advanced enchantments, the Silver Hand seeks to forge weapons capable of channeling the raw energy of the Void, granting their wielders unparalleled strength and mastery over the arcane. These weapons are not without their risks, however, as prolonged exposure to Void energy can corrupt both body and soul, driving the wielder to madness or worse.In addition to their weapons research, the Silver Hand also delves into the creation of Void gates – portals that allow for travel between dimensions and realms. By harnessing the unstable energies of the Void, they seek to create stable pathways that will grant them access to untold riches and forbidden knowledge from beyond the stars. However, such endeavors are fraught with peril, as the Void is a realm of chaos and madness, and any misstep could unleash unimaginable horrors upon the world.Despite the risks, the members of the Silver Hand are undeterred in their quest for power and mastery over the Void. Driven by ambition and a thirst for knowledge, they continue to push the boundaries of what is possible, daring to tread where others fear to go in their relentless pursuit of ultimate power. But as their research progresses, they must remain ever vigilant, for the forces they seek to control may prove to be their undoing if they are not careful.
