The opening scene for a new non-legacy character is the final battle and loux teleporting everyone out then it opens to you in a cart with a suspicious merchant(same merchant no matter what city/state you start in) and you not knowing where you came from. This to me always symbolized my character coming out of the void. I do not have a legacy account and most story npcs said I looked familiar and my Cid scene does not end after black text. I got my account 3 days after OR. Even the twins make a comment on how they believe the leaders to be not so truthful when using the phrase warriors of light, when they say that they don't remember you, as such deeds are not that easily forgotten.
