Are we no longer warriors... (Spoilers!)

This is where I get confused.

Originally source us would have been 1/14.

First calamity / rejoining = 2/14.

So after seven calamties / rejoinings we'd be 8/14 then add Ardbert for 9/14?

Well they made a mistakewhen the made the 13 into the void so it did not join the source

if i remember correctly I can be wrong need to dive deep into the story and the lore again

That doesn't change the maths. The void was a failed attempt at rejoining, but there have still been 7 successful attempts, add in the original source piece and Ardbert and you're at 9/14.

Look on the bright side. We wont randomly fall incapacitated due to ill timed visions. Many times of which we probably should have been killed.

We still have the Echo and all that and even if Venat taught us how to properly use it in Elpis, we still didnt do that in role quests[not that id expect them to update cutscenes themselves i guess]

Assuming this is accurate, the worlds rejoined in order were: 5th, 12th, 2nd, 3rd, 6th, 10th and 7th.

well then they don't count the source since it the original star which makes some sense i guess seven shards has joined the original star....

On topic: for non legacy players, the title "Warrior of Light" is bestowed on us by the Eorzean Alliance's leaders due to how our actions reminded them of the "Warriors of Light" from Cartenau, themselves named because they can only be remembered as silhouettes against a bright light. For legacy players they are those Warriors of Light.

It's a moniker that turned out to be "more right than they could have known," but it is a moniker bestowed by current governing powers, much like how we're the Warrior of Darkness on the First. As far as the layman who knows of us knows we are the Warrior of Light.

Only ways we'd lose that title would be a "Stranger in a Strange Land" expansion where we wander intentionally to where our reputation does not precede us, or if the current governing powers were removed. Though in the latter case the name "Warrior of Light" might even remain, just used in fear or as a pejorative.

We're still Azem.

And I'm pretty sure we're not going to be "just adventurers". That ship sailed.

That said, we'll probably not see a world ending catastrophe again for a while.

I am sure we will see a world ending catastrophe in the next expansion. Maybe some aliens will attack us with a planet destroyer or something else. Or the omicrons will get an order to attack us and Omega awakes.

Not sure why this is an issue for some. Lit the only thing Hydaelyn (Venat) gave you was her Traveler's Ward (protection against aetheric corruption, which is what primal tempering is) and that one time she shielded you from the Ultima spell. Remember when Midgardsormr blocked Hydaelyn from you so you couldn't even speak to her? And you still pulled off great feats? Not to mention that time and time again throughout each expansion it's been said over and over how weak Hydaelyn must be getting, and we later learn why.

Everything else you've ever done was all you, including the Echo, which is just a natural ability the Ancients have.

EDIT: Azem (your) crystal can still summon others. As stated in game, that summoning spell was of your design, and all Hydaelyn placed on it was a special (temporary) one to be used right at the end to call Hyth and Emet to you. The original summoning magic still remains.

This isn't exactly true, there have been many solo challenges where we, the player, are about to lose when she refreshes our bars completely to keep going, or just shields us from outside powers. This "power" was what originally earned us the "Warrior of Light" title, not just because we couldn't be tempered. Like for instance when Igeyorhm suspends us in the air with her magic to steal away the key to Azusa Lla, we are only able to resist because we gained back a portion of our blessing. Yes, we've become formidable warriors in our own right by this point, but we would have been wiped out long time ago if it weren't for Hydaelyn.
