The Warrior of Light is, for what it's worth, likely a Royalist. The Sultana is nothing but gracious to them, while the Syndicate has proven itself to be untrustworthy. They might make an exception for Godbert, but other than that I wouldn't trust a Monetarist as far as I can throw them.

The Warrior of Light isn't a political player; rather, they're a political tool. Their interests lie mostly in dealing with whatever threat is threatening to destroy Eorzea and/or Hydaelyn at large, and other than that prefer to be left to their adventuring business. Due to their amazing strength, however, political players will use the Warrior of Light as a pawn - which was most of what happened over 2.1 - 2.55.

I could never join the Syndicate / Monetarist faction in good conscience. They're plutocrats, and as a working class man I'm not down with that.
