..so me and some friends (Hi Sherk!) were in Void hunting thingies and I saw these eyes. I shot some footage with her, but came back after dark.

They would move away from me, and then would appear behind me or when I least expected it.

It was actually REALLY creepy.

Gave me the shivers, but I LOVE how this game still leaves some things to mystery!

No, that armor is missing bottoms. It's not fit for these forums.

Next time I see you in that I am calling your mother to come pick you up.

First saw these in Silan (jungle area), creeped me out too. :)

I'd speculate it's either the Kami keeping an eye on things or something worse we haven't discovered yet.

These are the things called plasmoids or euphemerids :) We are trying to classify them in our addition to the floral atlas (allthough they are actually a kind of noncorporeal fauna...)

How many more secrets does atys hold?

My guess is they're Kami.

Yeah, my guess would be some etheral form of Kami too.
They are supposed to be etheral entitys after all, only manifesting for the sake of Homin interaction and to be able to change shape at will.
And someoneĀ“s gotta keep an eye on those diggers in void, to let the 7K Hammer fall if they overdo it again ;) :D

They are creepy, yes. And I like it :)

WHile our anthropoidal own form may lead us to think them "eyes" they might as well be wings of some insects or birds, or could be the emission of an insect or bird we cannot see, similar to sepia's cloud of ink in Earth's waters. If you look closer under the luminous shape there lingers a small shade of a sort of smoke.
