Fan Fest Lore Revelations [Spoilers]

[Alleo]

So a possibility I've seen brought up is that the travel between world's will, in-universe, be us going to one of the shards. So my theory is, we are not causing a Flood of Ljght, but the war with Garlemald is on the path to Calamity...and if the Calamity happens, Hydaelyn won't be able to stop the Flood in the first shard.

It could even be that the other Scions have already been pulled over to try and speed up the process of stopping the Flood, while the WoL/D will go between the Source and First Shard to try and prevent both.

Still wonder what actions we would have to do to stop a FLood of Light that is already happening. Also that would be quite another heavy packed expansion since we are kinda dealing with Garlemald and the Ascians too, throwing Dimension hopping on that pile would quite make this into stressfull storytelling imo.

Or maybe we just get a glimpse of a possible future and to prevent that we have to be very careful in our actions.

The opposite of the Warrior of Light is not the Warrior of Darkness, but an Ascian. Both the Warriors of Light and Darkness were blessed by Hydaelyn and follow her ideals ultimately. Even when Albert and Co. became WoDs, their goal was to save the aether (life) of their Shard from nonexistance. I can easily see us becoming a WoD not because we havr to fight against Hydaelyn, but because Hydaelyn herself says we have to do that for some reason. We know she cares about preserving life, so I could see her be willing to do whatever she has to to preseve it. Even if that means asking us to spread Darkness.

Can we say that for sure? The only example we have is Arbert an his group and they got called the WoD by Elidibus who wanted them to cause more and more summonings so that a calamity will happen and their shard will be destroyed. It was not Hydaelyn who called them to the source, the good outcome was only done because of Urianger, if it would have been like Elidibus wanted it to be, we would have had a calamity with mass death at the hand of the WoD. That imo makes it sound like quite the opposite of the WoL.

In the end the WoD wanted to spead up the process thus trying to outright kill us because that would have thrown the world into utter chaos. Hydaelyn still forgave them because she probably understood that it was not really their fault and that they were desperate but we cant just really say for sure if it means to stand on the same side.

So we will see what makes them different enough to warrant a different name. In the end until now the WoL has done nothing but trying to do the best for the realm and its people. We killed lots of bad guys that would have thrown the world into chaos if they were left for themselves and we stopped Primals. So what actions would we need to take to not make it Light? (Especially since we will be able to help Ishgard with rebuilding and things like that)
