Ancient Mural - Final Fantasy XVI Database

In-game Description

A wall painting found in the depths of the Apodytery under Phoenix Gate. Who created it, and for what purpose, is unknown, but the celestial being in the center suggests some connection to a long-lost religion.

A Religious Image
A religious image found across Valisthea: not only in the Apodytery under Phoenix Gate and in the Comraich, near the heart of Drake’s Breath, but upon a tapestry in Tabor, too. It depicts the Eikons arranged in adoration of a central figure believed to be Ultima, the god that rules above them all.

A Mural Intact
A religious image of the Circle of Malius, an ancient faith that worshipped Ultima. It depicts the Eikons arranged in adoration of a central figure thought to be Ultima himself, the god that rules above them all. The image is found across Valisthea, but it was only on encountering a fully intact copy deep beneath Ash that Joshua discovered that the Phoenix does not appear among the Eikons depicted.

Hidden Truths
A religious image of the Circle of Malius, an ancient faith that worshipped both the Mothercrystals and Ultima. It depicts the Eikons arranged in adoration of a central figure thought to be Ultima, the god that rules above them all. Joshua discovers an unblemished version in the depths of the Waloeder stronghold of Gjallarhorn, and learns that the figure thought to be Ultima is in fact that of Ifrit Risen—Ifrit and the Phoenix united as one.
