1575, Seventh Astral Era. The clouds of war gather on the horizon for Eorzea. Lured under a false flag by the Griffin, the Eorzean Alliance unwittingly has pledged itself to the liberation of Ala Mhigo from the iron-clad clutches of the Garlean Empire. From the great parapets of Baelsar's Wall, the Warriors of Light steel themselves for the bloodshed to come.

Spoilers for 3.5 if you haven't gotten to that point yet! The Warrior of Light, in the aftermath of certain events is left with self-loathing. That is, until Cid shows him a certain portal into an unknown world. He told the Scions, "A new adventure, what else?" Time to make good on that promise.

As darkness falls on Remnant, a light from another world appears. (Maybe Oneshot, maybe not. Inspired by the Lightening Strikes event from FF 14: ARR. This is also to help inspire anyone else who is familiar with the two series and may wish to write their own fic.)
