AL BHED appreciation post;

The Al Bhed are a tribe of technologists. Making up ten percent of the Spiran population, they have a unique language and, unlike the other races in Spira, use machina.
Out of all the humanoid races in Spira, the Al Bhed are the most
expressive in their emotions and body language; many of their more
notable members also exhibit personalities that may classify as
eccentric or juvenile. Al Bhed take an interest in Spira’s technological
past, organizing salvage operations and excavations for ancient
technology.
