Orience

The land of Final Fantasy Type-0, split among four Crystal States.

Orience is the setting of Final Fantasy Type-0, a land divided among four nations called Crystal States. Each holds a crystal based on the Four Symbols: Rubrum's Vermillion Bird Crystal controls magic, the Milites Empire's White Tiger Crystal science and weapons, Concordia's Azure Dragon Crystal dragons, and the Lorican Alliance's Black Tortoise Crystal shielding.

Lore & Background

Each nation has an academy, or Peristylium, that studies and guards its crystal. The crystals can mark people as l'Cie, who receive a Focus to complete, a long life and the ability to turn into crystal, but slowly lose their memories. Ordinary people also forget the dead, a mechanism the crystals impose for the gods who made them.

Many characters hope to become Agito, a legendary figure who will save the world from Tempus Finis, an apocalypse that would destroy Orience.
