Elidibus and the First Warrior of Light (Spoilers)

After EW, one could interpret the original Sundered WoL as being us in Elpis.
Elidibus grew to idolize us during the Pandemonium raid and created the mantle that would end up being ascribed to us and paradoxically inspire its creation.

First things first, this all goes back to Final Fantasy I. The phrase "shrouded / veiled in darkness" and a prophesied hero being the world's only hope is the opening of that game. The armor of the Warrior of Light is the concept art for the Knight class from Final Fantasy I, which is also the cover of the Japanese game.

Him dressing up as the first warrior of light and the villian for ff1 is none other than chaos in alphascape 1.
