Your WOL has the chance to time travel again and this time they could change ONE major event that has led them to where they currently are.

HOWEVER, they are forbidden from changing anything having to do with Haurchefant Greystone. In fact, doing so would tip the balance so much that anything else they have done would be nullified and the world would end instantly. Every world tied to the Source would cease to be in an instant.

What other event do they change or stop from happening?

One of the best things about Final Fantasy as a series is the influence of our world within the stories. Everything from contemporary pop culture references (looking at you FFXIV) to the writings of Shakespeare and other such influences.

One of the most recurring quotes is this one from Hamlet, it’s in every single one of the FF games somehow. Pushing the idea that yes, we are as the warrior of light are a hero to some but to others we are the enemy. We are evil and we must be destroyed.

It reminds you that true good and evil are all about perspectives. What one does that makes us hurt or angry may not make others feel the same; they may celebrate it.

Take XIV (14) for example, every expansion up until Endwalker has told us that the war with Garlemald is because they are evil. When we finally get there we see how evil WE are in their eyes.

We hear from soldiers who survived the fall of Dalamud, people who lost friends in the Praetoriam. Former soldiers who were stationed in Doma. To them we are evil, we are the worlds enemy. (I’m not going to spoil it any more than that, you’ll have to find the NPCs on your own.)

Go one expansion back in Shadowbringers and we go from being “the Warrior of light” to being referred to as “the warrior of darkness”. Light is suddenly the enemy and darkness is the salvation. Complete 180 from how we’re usually depicted in the series.

It really drives home the idea that no matter who you are and what good you think you’re doing, someone sees you as the enemy. It’s also vice versa. For as many people who see you as the enemy, there are people who see you as a hero.

It’s all about perspective.

And so they came, at a friend's behest. To Ishgard, shining city on the mount, overlooking the dominion of Coerthas... A land that after a thousand years of war had forgotten what it meant to be at peace. 

Celebrating the 10th anniversary of Heavensward.

G'raha Tia was never sent to Sharlayan by his family. Never had the chance to become an Archon. Never volunteered for the expedition to explore the Crystal Tower.

In effect the Crystal Exarch never exists, neither does the Crystarium. The First and all the people of Norvrandt die to the light and become Sin Eaters. They’re now a threat to other worlds much like Void Sent.

G’raha is never there to assist Alisaie in finding her cure. The people in Radz-at-Hand subsequently die from darkest despair. He’s also never in Ultima Thule.

Without him there’s only one member of the Students of Baldessian left, the order is not free to pursue petitions and they never accept the request to assist in Tuliyollal. Thus Kryle never follows through with her quest there either.


What if the adventurous bard was instead found by House Van Darnus and his heirloom exploited?
