Ok Dumd question kinda
Does the Wol listens to the music when fighting? Example
When you are about to fight Garuda is there like a Ixali with a electric guitar hiding and playing the song while you fight ?. Like is there any lore explaining where the music comes from?

[Jeeqbit]

I don't think so.

[Eldevern]

There's no dumb question. Only replies are. Then I will pass

Though somehow I replied anyway. So ok, I guess I'm dumb. Argghhhh

There isnt any official explantion that I'd be aware off - considering that having a soundtrack is pretty standard in videogames (with usually no explantion given in regards to "why" your character(s) might be able to hear that music) I'd be surprised if the lore-team spent a lot of thought on this subject.

...if you need an explantion for yourself: the WoL has a linkpearl - and while thats usually used for communication, whos to say that you cant stream your favorite music aswell?
Alternatively: Since Hydylean can speak to us, whats so say that she isnt constantly supplying us with music with the intention of aiding us in our battles (seeing how the music often matches the rythm of fights or can be used as a tell for mechanics).
Or, a bit lame: Have you ever noticed yourself humming in your head? I know that I do that quite often - famous earworms and all that - maybe the music is just in the very musical head of the WoL.

...or the WoL doesnt hear it at all and its just for the players entertainment in the end.

Yeah ofc the WoL can hear all the music, in my headcanon the WoL is bringing a orchestrion jukebox to every bossfight just to have the right music to get into the mood!

For an actual serious answer, no.

But I think this idea is much funnier.

WoL strolling into Ifrit; ifrit begins his monologue
WoL: Yo hold up a sec, i need to crank Primal judgement on my jukebox.
Ifrit: ???

This gives rise to a new class called DJ the DJ class is powerful and can blast an opponent with sound from there portable dj table. Or freeze an opponent with a song. Yes so many possibilities. S/ lol

Canonically there is always a bard in your squad of adventures rocking the music in the back boosting the parties moral.

[Kolsykol]

Now that I think about it, it's pretty awkward to think of Dancers just dancing to no music lol.

[Equitable_Remedy]

I don't think so.

Bard like
