I would have liked the lore to incorporate other players, but for whatever reason, SE thought about it carefully and decided to make the lore exclude other players. I don't know why they thought this was a good idea, but apparently they did think about it and it was intentional to do it this way.

As such, there is no other Warrior of Light other than yourself. Just people with the Echo, who usually aren't good fighters. The closest we come to having other Warriors of Light post-1.0 are the Company of Heroes, Ysayle, Arenvald and Fordola. And well, SE was quick to get rid of them the moment you thought about teaming with them.

Starting with Endwalker, we can include all the fighters we know in this by handing them the items that repel primal influence. Starting with Dawntrail, we can include Krile in this because she has the Echo and becomes a fighter. All of it is arguably not relevant anymore because primals are done with, but I can't rule out us being immune to other threats due to the Blessing of Light.

I wanted to imagine that there are other nameless people with the Echo in the scions that I could pretend are players, but ARR ruined those hopes by killing off most of the nameless scions and having you carry their bodies to Eastern Thanalan.
