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

    Are we no longer Warriors of Light? With Hydaelyn gone, aren't we just adventurers again? The whole reason we were originally even given the WoL title was because Hydaelyn chose us, empowering and protected us against enemies that would surely have killed us without her intervention. It even shows her walking with us every step of the way of our journey, taking the blows for us. The only thing we have left is the ward she placed on us against aether corruption.

    I felt incredibly saddened when we looked down at Azem's crystal and watched the last few sparkling motes of Hydaelyn dance away into the sky as her voice spoke "May you ever walk, in the light..." because it felt like saying goodbye to the past 10 years of my adventures and experiences on this game. I wonder if we'll continuously be known as Warriors of light in future expansions/content.

    Back to zero.
    We'll be collecting mushrooms to make a soup for a sick citizen and killing small rats bothering villagers at the start of the next expansion.

    well theres no light or dark to be worried about anymore so no.
    We are an adventurer once again, tho still popular and powerful, we are free to walk our own path.
    Tho no doubt some NPCs could refer to us as WoL here n there it wont be as often as it was more recently.
    Also "officially" the Scions have disbanded so theres that.

    Maybe our char can do /joy again at the end of a dungeon.

    Kinda tired of that brooding emo face after the final boss.

    I don't know if it's a reset, or now we're WoD(y).

    I imagine somewhere along the way from 6.1 to 6.5 they will explore what it all means for us that the Blessing of Light might not be a thing anymore.

    At the same time, I wonder how impactful the Blessing of Light has been anyways. It was more relevant during ARR and HW, though mostly protecting us from Ultima once and stopping Ascians from going at the Scions... And even without the Blessing of Light, we still have the Echo and the WoL being more or less an Ascian through the stuff with being the sundered Azem, we have other sources of plot power.

    Finally! The incessant hero complex was starting to bore me out.

    We still have the blessing of light we just do not have Hydalen intervention anymore. We also still have the echo and are half Ascian so we arent completely stripped.

    imo we never stopped becoming an adventurer.
    What was the past 11 years if not the greatest adventure to have happen?

    Me too and I'm hoping for simpler adventures and less world-ending threats.
