Final Fantasy III is set in Hydaelyn's 4th Umbral Era

Do you think there's any comparison between these to images? One is FFIII world of darkness and the other is taken from FFXIV after a battle.

You've made me wonder if the "World of Darkness" is actually the Void.

I just figured that the old Mun-Tuy was destroyed and a new one was built elsewhere with the Gridanians giving it the old name out of a sense of the need to rebuild after the Calamity, much like a lot of the Aetheryte Camps and other places in Eorzea.

Nope. Chat to the NPCs in the new Mun-Tuy and one talks about how pleased everyone is that the Order of the Twin Adder cleared the place of monsters.

As for FFIII = ancient Hydaelin: My problem with this is that Xande was not an emperor in FFIII. He was one of three Magi apprenticed to Noah, along with Doga and Unei.

Ok. This one I might need to try and work out...
