Warriors of Light
The four youths who carry the darkened crystals in the first Final Fantasy.
The Warriors of Light are the four young heroes of the original Final Fantasy, each carrying one of the world's four elemental crystals, which have been darkened by the four Elemental Fiends. The sage Lukahn prophesied that four Light Warriors would come to save the world in a time of darkness.
Lore & Background
At the start they can reach only the Kingdom of Coneria and the ruined Temple of Chaos. After they rescue Princess Sarah from the knight Garland, the King of Coneria builds a bridge that lets them travel east to Pravoka, where they free the town from the pirate Bikke and take his ship. Having defeated the Fiends and restored the crystals, they travel two thousand years into the past and defeat Chaos.
In Final Fantasy XIV the player character is compared to the Warriors of Light who vanished in the Seventh Umbral Calamity and is hailed as a hero of the same calibre. The Amano-designed Warrior of Light appears as a boss in the Shadowbringers expansion.
