Why doesn't everyone hate the warrior of light?

[Belhi]

There are a few elements at play here. Though some may not RP it, the Warrior of Light is presented in the story as a pretty humble individual. We don't brag, we don't act as though we are better than everyone and we are willing to do simple tasks to help average people out. We will go out of our way to help a poor refugee as quickly as we will lend aid to a king.

There is bound to be jealousy, but at the end of the day we are just damn nice. It makes us hard to hate. The times that really changes is if your exploiting others since chances are we will mess up everything for you.

I can see the WoD beating us at some point which might give people a crisis of faith in the WoL but I don't see that breaking the WoL. S/he has show tenacity already. It will probably take more than one beating and people doubting to drag the WoL down.

It's because we are primals and we temper everyone we meet.

We aren't primals cause it's easy to detect a primal. The Scions have methods to detect them and on top of that they give out a particular signature which is why we were sure Moggle Mog and Shiva were primals.

On top of that tempering isn't a passive ability. Primals have to actively temper people. We saw this in both our interactions with Ifrit and Garuda and it matches Koji Fox's info on how the Company of Heroes fought Titan and Leviathan. They effectively had a wave 'absorb' the tempering and then used a second wave to occupy the freshly tempered first wave while a third wave attacked and took down Leviathan. Such a tactic could only work if Leviathan couldn't just spam tempering.
