#FINAL FANTASY XIV WIKI TRIAL#
Through the trial and the cooperation of a sympathetic Forum member, they learned that the Forum had been tasked with a "sacred duty" after researching the Lifestream in their former Eorzean colony, and that the Forum themselves were unable to speak about it due to a memory spell. The Scions were put on trial by the Forum, who forbade them from further inquiries at the risk of deportation. Their investigation came to an abrupt end when Fourchenault Leveilleur, father to the twins and a key member of the Forum, arrested them. While inside the facility, the Warrior received a rare flower that responded to emotion, as a gift from Hydaelyn. They discovered the Forum had increased the workload of their gleaners in obtaining items for Labyrinthos, and underground bunker serving as the scholars' main source of living specimens. Alphinaud’s group remained behind in the city to learn what they could from the Sharlayan archives. Once on Sharlayan, the Scions divided their efforts in news of the island of Thavnair requesting their aid. She revealed her reasons for being mostly silent in the Warrior's journey following the confrontation with Ultima, directing the majority of her energy to maintaining the seal on Zodiark, and warned them of the coming trials, before disappearing. During the journey, the Warrior encountered the ephemeral figure of Hydaelyn, the primal who had originally blessed them at the very beginning of the Warrior's journey. Gathering in Limsa Lominsa, the Scions ( the Warrior of Light, Alphinaud, Alisaie, Thancred, Urianger, Y'shtola, G'raha Tia, and the newly joined Estinien) bid farewell to coinkeepr Tataru and fellow Scions Hoary Boulder and Coultenet before departing by ship. Krile, having journeyed ahead to Old Sharlayan, contacted her friends in the Rising Stones, informing them of having obtained passage for them as helpers to rebuild the Students of Baldesion. The Scions planned to infiltrate the isolationist city-state of Sharlayan, which had previously rebuffed calls for aid from Eorzea, to discover what secrets they may have been hiding about the Final Days. The Grand Company tasked them to find a way to disable the towers to rescue the captives, discovering that the towers were drawing aether from the land. The Scions, working alongside the newly formed Grand Company, temporarily thwarted Fandaniel's plans by defeating his forces, and forcing him to retreat. The Eorzean Alliance and the beast tribes, freed from their primals' tempering by the Scions of the Seventh Dawn, united against this new threat as the Grand Company of Eorzea. From these tempered captives, as well as tempered Garlean citizens and soldiers, they raised a doomsday cult, the Telophoroi, supported by strange "lunar" variants of previously-fought primals. The duo planned to achieve this by taking over the Garlean Empire and utilizing mysterious spires they erected around the world, within which lied captured beastmen, and able to temper individuals in the same manner as primals. Fandaniel secured Zenos's cooperation by promising a rematch against the Warrior of Light, one to exceed even their fierce battle during the events of Stormblood. Unlike his brethren, Fandaniel was motivated by pure nihilism, wishing to be freed from his immortal but fragmented existence by triggering the " Final Days", a phenomenon that once nearly destroyed the world if not for the intervention of the elder primal Zodiark, created to be the will of the star. Subsequent patches will instead begin a whole new story arc for Final Fantasy XIV.Īt the end of Shadowbringers, the rogue Ascian Fandaniel allied himself with the returned Zenos yae Galvus after the latter murdered his father, the emperor, placing the Garlean Empire in utter chaos. Set to be the end of the Hydaelyn and Zodiark storyline, Endwalker concludes its narrative within the expansion's Main Scenario Quest, rather than in the later patches, unlike other expansions.
