## Resource

It has been a slow news week in the Final Fantasy XIV community, but we're here to bring you some of the news you might have missed. We look back at Myths of the Realm and ask if it would have been better as an 8-man raid similar to The Arcadion than an alliance raid, and what do you do when a seasonal event offers housing items, but you don't own a house? We also dive into an interview with Tom Morello, Caleb Shomo, and Masayoshi Soken about the creation of the song "Everything Burns" from the Arcadion's final fight. Welcome!
