Broken Fantasy: Side Quest by Neon Pomegranate (Pilux), Pilux
Fandoms: Final Fantasy XIV
22 Sep 2025
Tags
Summary
How does the story of this sun go, as she travels through the stars? Like so many others, this is a story of meetings, of chance encounters. Endless possibilities of what could be and what never was. How does one change the path well walked to a road less traveled? When sentiment rises above all else, the heart's will can alter the tale once carved in stone. What familiar fragments shall remain when the cracked foundation is torn asunder and rebuilt anew? Hello, new old story! What laughter and tears shall ever be familiar, and what new joys and sorrow shall join the chorus?
Mistakes and choices were made in the past and future, and now there are Four Warriors of Light who could all easily take center stage and be the hero. However, one does appear to shine brighter than the others, perhaps that's whom the story is meant for?
Even then, having FOUR Warriors of Light can't be a bad thing, right? The established timeline won't change that much...
Can it?

Starting in A Realm Reborn and will go all the way up to the end of Endwalker. DT and beyond will probably be the start of a new long fic unless I get lazy and just keep this one going WHO KNOWS.Series

Final Fantasy XIV Retold Book 1: A Life Reborn (A Realm Reborn 2.0 Retold) by hivelordlusa
Fandoms: Final Fantasy XIV
21 Sep 2025
Tags
Summary
A human woman with a little too much knowledge of the realm's future is sent to Eorzea from Earth to aid the Warrior of Light. Why? Hydaelyn won't say, but it's enough for Alice to try and save the lives of characters she's grown attached to over the last few months. But can she do it? And how will she explain it to the Scions?
___________________
This story covers the Retold (or "EFFXIV") version of just "A Realm Reborn" without any 2.x patch content. It will contain spoilers for up to Endwalker 6.0. This fic has already been completed, but I will be uploading chapters once a week just in case (with the exception of the first two and last two), to make sure it's all up to a quality I'm happy with.Series

Summary
22 year old O'rahm Xoorha has embarked on a journey to Eorzea, with the goal to aid all in need as a new adventurer. Yet the threads of fate have other plans in store for him. Before even stepping foot on Eorzea’s shores, he has been blessed to serve as Hydaelyn’s Champion: The Warrior of Light. While on this journey, he shall find power, friends, family, and love.
But he will also be faced with great evils. From ancient entities to his own inner demons, and even the Gods themselves, all shall vie to take his life! Such is his soul’s fate to be hunted for the power cultivated within. For as the shadow of end draws ever closer, the darkness of the Abyss shall rise in opposition.
Also, O'rahm and Y'shtola are a couple, and I love them so much!

Summary
With Hades returned to the Aetherial Sea and no plans for a reunion in this life…what next? Can Glori find happiness? Can she let herself find happiness? Glori and her dearest friends saved the very star, but this challenge may prove more daunting than defeating despair itself. Healing is needed, fences need mending, and then, maybe, just maybe, two old hearts may finally align.
This story, about a Hyur Warrior of Light named Glori, is a sequel to a previous story, Dragonscale Box (and its three supplements). While Dragonscale Box was written with a rather obsessive goal of fitting itself within the MSQ of Shadowbringers and Endwalker, this story has long since diverged.

Summary
The Warrior of Light is given a heavy choice to make. To set out on a brand-new expedition, broadening her horizons and chasing new excitements… or to set her adventurer’s title aside, and make room for a peaceful transition into motherhood. Her mind and heart are divided, and when Erenville’s objections lead her to a breaking point, she turns away for guidance – to those who came before her.

Summary
The Warriors of Light, Havi Mori and Tiomaux Sellecerre, were two of the greatest heroes ever known to the realm... and their friend was there, too.
Vira Vanille, a young Auri girl who grew up on the docks of Limsa Lominsa, had little to her name besides spunk and optimism. In the aftermath of the Seventh Umbral Calamity, Vira struck out on her own, only to swiftly be caught up in events larger than she had thought possible. Despite her youth and naivety, she refused to sit idly by and let the Warriors of Light brave danger without a healer by their side. After all, who needed the Echo, anyway?

Greetings From the Throes of the Eighth Umbral Calamity by WisteriaWalker
Fandoms: Final Fantasy XIV
17 Jul 2025
Tags
Summary
“To those who come after:
Greetings.
I pray that by the time these words have reached you, the world has regained some of itself, and I am not a man given to prayer. Very few that remain are. And so, if you be among those, I ask of you to reseal these words and go on. They are not for you.
But if, like certain late comrades of mine, hope is a fine silken thread that binds your heart and patches your soul, heed the contents herein that all your tomorrows be better than any of our yesterdays.”

Summary
WARNING: This fic contains spoilers for the end of Shadowbringers and Endwalker. Please skip if you haven't completed those expansions.
There are memories we cling to, and others that slip through our fingers no matter how tightly we try to hold them. G’raha Tia thought he carried all the moments that mattered with him when he returned to the Source — the battles, the bonds, the hope of a better tomorrow.
But memory is a curious thing. Especially when shaped by magic, sacrifice, and time.
Now, reunited with the Scions and with the world on the edge of another calamity, G’raha finds himself haunted by flashes of something more—something lost. And the Warrior of Light, who once meant everything to him, is keeping secrets of her own.
When a violent act brings everything back into focus, both must confront what was forgotten, what was never said, and whether it's too late to begin again.

Summary
Welcome to Miso's Musings! These are Miso's journal entries written from her perspective as we have gone through the main story of FFXIV together! Everything written happened in chronological order, as events unfolded in the game. Any in-character speculation happened as the story happened so it's been fun seeing what's turned out to be true, how much of Miso's story has played into the events of the game, and having a place for both of us to gather our thoughts about her journey. I hope you enjoy!
Currently I have only played up until the end of Shadowbringers 5.0, so please no spoilers in the comments beyond that point :)
If you wanna read all my writings before they end up here check out my WoL's website! : https://www.ffxiv-miso.com/

Saving the world: A guide to sleepless nights in Eorzea by Yillia
Fandoms: Final Fantasy XIV
25 Mar 2025

Summary
This is just me writing about my experience playing the game, and I will update through the main story quest, maybe side quests or job quests if they're interesting. Characters might a little OoC because they've only had like 2 lines of dialogue so far (even though we defeated primals together and shit), because while the game is super pretty and the gameplay is fun, the character development is tedious af, so I'm taking matters in my own hands. Starts at: Escape from Castrum Centri (MSQ 46). Currently at: Post-Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn Patches 2.0 - 2.5., The Binding Coils of Bahamut (Questline & Raids).

Summary
Zenos had fulfilled his purpose for himself, achieved what he desired in his life, disappointing the end result may have been. He was fine with his place in the rift, disallowed to fade and reform in the aetherial sea. He expected the monotony of his living hours here, too, but what he didn't expect was the very power that let him set his stage of despair becoming a lure to peek in on what his friend was up to.

Summary
The job of the Warrior of Light is to sacrifice everything for others, to be a weapon and little else, to never want anything for one's self. At least this is what Thilan believes and has tried to embody.
He's been quite good at it, generally speaking, as a sort of broken half-person with no past and no value outside of his use as a weapon. He's never refused to help or put his own wants ahead of those of others. He's saved the world.
And, just once, he's been given permission to do something selfish.

Summary
“By the Twelve! It’s coming from the Reach!” Alphinaud cried aloud, pointing east, and taking a few steps forward, only to be grabbed back and held by Kaine immediately. Emoni and Aris both turned and looked as thick black smoke rose from the mountain gap where Rhalgr’s Reach was located. The ambush they had feared happening had just come true right at their moment of triumph. Alphinaud’s face contorted as he desperately reached out on his pearl to the Scions left at the Reach, his signal going unanswered. M’Naago’s face fell too, as did many others in the Resistance as they began to panic, their linkpearl calls reaching noone.
