/XV the existence of "somnus" as a drug in FFXIV simply makes me think of it being a crime to smuggle Somnus Lucis Caelum into places he shouldn't be

I wonder if somnus is ever going to actually come up again

like it seemed like a big thing early on and then it just kinda vanished

That's probably most places.

He's banned from a lot of things.

as he should be

i think this came up very briefly in hugtopia, if i remember right

which i may not

i recall ardyn being very perplexed.

it's in gnb quests so it has def not been forgotten about, it's just lying around for whenever a story needs Not Opium

holo 2024 : oh nice

I assume it's gonna stay kind of in the background

as it's not super in line with the major themes

though now? who knows!

at the very least I'm interested to see if anything new happens with that one refugee camp near Blackbrush where they're growing the flowers and apparently also dealing the drug

Lost Hope?

yeah!

theoretically, those refugees should have more options available to them now to make a living
