To tie this all back into FFIV - will it turn out that Golbez and Zero are siblings?

There's a guy besides Golbez in the flashback who could probably be taken to be Cecil but it's still possible. I do have another, more cursed theory. We know Zero was born halff voidsent because her mom was touched by darkness during pregnancy. There's a FF4 character who was probably pregnant during some point in the game and was in contact with a source of darkness. That's right, Zero is actually Ceodora, daughter of Cecil and Rosa.

Given that she previously was depicted with a sword and shield, I'm still on Team Zero is Cecil, but Zero is Ceodore would be... interesting.

The way zero is narrating the flashback it seems like she's meeting the guys from baron for the first time and isn't familiar with the place so I'm gonna ho with no on the Cecil connection

I've been wondering since I finished the MSQ a few weeks back, but how much of the WoL's journey is common knowledge? Upon starting the Pandaemonium quests, one of the researchers offhand was like "I could scarcely believe half the things I've heard about you!" oh yeah? What have you heard about me? that towards the end of my journey I went back in time and partly inspired the individual who would go on to become your God to achieve Godhood in the first place? That she wasn't a true God but a primal? Cuz yeah I would scarcely believe that too. That second one feels like it would have pretty serious ramifications among the various cultures of the world, maybe even on par with a calamity. I'm not even sure that my closest allies are aware that I'm the reincarnation of the sundered soul of Azem. Is all this all an exercise best left to the reader?

At minimum the WoL is known for beating the Ultima Weapon, ending the Dragonsong War, liberating Doma and Ala Mhigo, and being right up in the thick of whatever nonsense almost ended the world. Those are all pretty impressive things! The rest is probably fairly regular recounting of boots on the ground heroic deeds or stuff done in sidequests. The really personal stuff like what's under the spoiler bars is probably not common public knowledge because that's really no one's business and not particularly relevant to all the nation-liberating and world-saving that everyone appreciates the Warrior of Light for. I do think the Scions have an awareness of the WoL being a shard of Azem and all that funky Ascian/ancient stuff, but that's because they were with you for it or at least more intimately tied up in your adventures. If you talk to them at the Rising Stones between the 5.3 to 6.0 patches, they let on that you've told them a few details, at least.

I'd expect anybody in Sharlayan also knows about your escapades in the Crystal Tower and Eureka outside of the general knowledge that you're the Warrior of Light, Eikon Slayer and Garlean Killing Machine. Even in ARR you had a reputation with the Garleans by the leadup to the Castrum dungeons, and I suspect being pals with nearly every head of state in the world causes rumors to spread like wildfire. I'd agree that stuff from the First and anything else to do with the ancients is probably vague rumors at best, since it's so fantastical even for the high fantasy setting you're in.

At the very least, the researchers for the Pandaemonium questline know you have/can go to Elpis, which means the people above them probably know too. Perhaps not exactly "common" knowledge, but there are people outside the tight-knit circle of Scions that have some awareness.

It's actually shorter to list the exploits where we can reasonably assume people don't know. Off the top of my head, Shadow of Mhach is definitely an unknown, since even Tataru doesn't seem to know we're friends with the Redbills. ...well, unknown on the Source, at least. We sent a looooooot of Voidsent packing in those stories, and some of them seem like talkers. Cleretic fucked around with this message at 12:09 on May 15, 2023 |

Although naturally given the setting, your appearance is less well known. There's that quest in Mor Dhona where you beat up some thieves, then afterwards an NPC calls you by your name and the thieves are like "oh poo poo we were attacking the Warrior of Light, no wonder we got our asses kicked, we're lucky to still be alive"

Hell, it comes up in the Fishing quests for the Studium, the questgiver gets permission for you to go back in time to catch some pre-Zodiark fish for research purposes.

Maybe worth noting--although I'm not sure what it means--that this is English-only. In other languages time travel doesn't come up but the same point is made, basically going 'I mean we knew that but we didn't expect you to figure it out so fast'. The English translation director is also in charge of keeping track of lore, so I can't imagine it's a mistake, but it is very weird.

Sharlayan of all places is probably used to having individuals with incredibly strange freak abilities due to some niche piece of scientific research so they're probably like "Ah, you actually managed to pull this off but you can only go to one specific no longer extant place? Interesting, that's a form 43-C then"

Sharlayan would have to be aware of time travel as a possibility, right? After all, Louisoix just casually warps the WoL 5 years into the future to save them from Bahamut in the ARR intro cutscene

That's forward time travel, much easier because that's already the direction time goes. Backwards, much more elusive.

Is Hydaelyn a well-known deity? I thought Eorzeans worshipped The Twelve and only people with knowledge of the Echo actually knew of Hydaelyn.

To most denizens of the world, Hydaelyn is the name of the star planet, and is sometimes thought by the larger populace to possess a will unto her own, even without knowing of the Echo or the Mothercrystal, but she's not really been the subject of worship per se.

Was Hydaelyn known on the first? Did the first even have gods?

Electric Phantasm posted:Was Hydaelyn known on the first? Did the first even have gods? They certainly have religion -- we see Churches of the First Light in Lakeland and Il Mheg, apparently as some kind of "light as holy/good" faith, which is understandably dead post-Flood. Rak'tika has the darkness faiths, and Ronka had gods and deific figures, but in general there doesn't seem to be a lot of concept of big anthropomorphic "God" figures in what we see of recent First religion.
