If Van Darnus wakes up near the end of winter and sees his shadow....then there will be another month of falling meteors.

GamerEscape coverage of the media tour goes up today, so I'm now free to quote...

Yoshida explained the three story arcs that will make up the story for A Realm Reborn:

1. In this arc, the consciousness of the planet has formed into the Mother Crystal whom then speaks to the players. This is the storyline that will stretch throughout the entirety of the new FINAL FANTASY XIV.
2. Grand Companies vs the Garlean Empire. Yoshida noted that for this arc, an important keyword is “Warriors of Light”.
3. The Primals, which feed on the life force of the planet have grown in both strength and influence since the appearance of Bahamut.

You nailed that Mother Crystal angle from a mile away, lol. </highfive>

Sweet, now we just have to consider ourselves crazy because crystals are talking to us! omg! But anyways. Obligatory: well that doesn't mean Siren still can't be our Primals. Just kidding of course. I was thinking if the Succubus are a Beast Tribe (I mean, they were shown having different 'jobs') then maybe Siren is their lady. Yeah you can tell I'm bored =[

Technically it doesn't count her out, actually. If the crystal is a life force of the planet manifest, that still leaves the door open for deities from the all-otherworlds-encompassing void, including the Twelve (which I still say are the Olympians) and the Primals (which I still say are the Titans).

Remember, the crystal is basically life energy as a whole manifest - it's aether. Primals would know the difference between aether and other primals easier than you'd tell the difference between smelling fresh cinnamon buns and just smelling your flatmate.

Ifrit didn't smell aether on us ... he smelled his own.

The door's still open...

JUST SAYIN'

So... It's safe to discuss who are Warriors of ~~
"Don't you drag me!" /turn back and warn the men in black from NDA department.

Gosh these NDA men are so annoying...

/clear throat
Just ask for ppl's guesses...
So, who will be Warriors of Light? Are they save us from Bahamut and prison him at somewhere?
What's your guesses...?
Since midlanders got teleported before everyone got saved, so I think they are out of the possibility.
Is that white light shinning on Lou's face from "warriors of light"? Is that why he's smiling?

• can it be we players are one of the warrior of light but we lost memories or npc don't recognize us?
  • You know in MMORPG is an interesting situation that we somehow is the "only" savior but not alone! In the mission story line, the other players doesn't exist. Some of them will show up as your "friends" but they are replaceable. However, I doubt SE will give us such glory...
• more special R tattooed people came to save us?
  • like the kitty and that monk and that blm lala... can't remember names at all =.=
• newly made up secret society. or that blond hume lady lead us
  • since there is a keeper of the secret, like that white raven family, jump out of surprise; there got to be enforcer family or something like that jumps out to keep the order. like watch the witches...
    I believe this version more...
• Merlwyb Bloefhiswyn ARRRRRG got mad and whole robe exploded and became super galka and started to shoot laser gun; Kan-e-Senna got mad white robe exploded and became x-men Storm; Raubahn Aldynn's subligar shinning rainbow neon colors and became sheman!
  • I think someone disagreed with me before that these leaders are strong. but you know there is still a 0.05% chance... XD and it's kinda fun to see Grid leader jumps up to the air and whole white robe shattered and started to shoot lightning...

Clearly the Warriors of Light will be what we're referred to. Us/the Midlander and his party. The Circle of Knowing may know of Louisoix's Plan B if things went awry, but I doubt the Grand Company leaders were filled in. So as they looked on as Bahamut was preparing a blast to wipe Louisoix and ourselves (CG Midlander and party representing us) out, all they see is an explosion and nothing surviving in it's wake. I highly doubt Louisoix told the GC Leaders the his plan would be to warp us into a void-like place for 5 years. There could even be the possibility that of the Circle of Knowing, cept for Urianger who seemed to be Louisoix's right-hand Elezen, didn't even know of Plan B..considering they were off praying or activating the spell and were not there to witness what happened. We won't know until we're able to use our characters and see how the story applies to us and our return.

As for the other questions I'm not sure what you mean, R tattooed people came to save us?

As for the secret society, you ultimately have the Circle of Knowing and the Path of the Twelve. Then of course there's the Syndicate. Just a few examples of secret societies. As for the 'blonde hyur lady,' Minfilia will still be around and we don't know how the Echo will be effected in ARR. Ultimately we had the Echo to learn of things prior to the year 1572 Sixth Astral, whether we'll need this power or not in ARR I'm not sure we can say. Of course we would need it to speak to Moogles and Sylphs and Beastmen alike..so I'm sure we'll still have it. Being able to witness the happenings during our 5-year absent will be a major storyline that I'm sure we're all looking forward to.
