Final Fantasy XI: Wings of the Goddess

Final Fantasy XI: Wings of the Goddess (ファイナルファンタジーXI アルタナの神兵, Fainaru Fantajī Irebun Arutana no Shinhei?, lit. Final Fantasy XI Divine Soldiers of Altana) will be the fourth expansion pack for Final Fantasy XI. It was announced by Square Enix on May 12, 2007 at the Square Enix Party 2007 in Japan.

Not much is currently known about the expansion except that it is based in Vana'diel's past and will offer new jobs. This will mark the return of time travel in the Final Fantasy series; this plot point had originally been introduced as early as in Final Fantasy I, and was used again in Final Fantasy VIII and Final Fantasy Legend III.

Plot
The story occurs in the era of the Crystal War, 20 years in the past. You first come there through a mysterious portal called a "Cavernous Maw" (which strongly resembles Atomos) in one of the areas surrounding Jeuno. After a short cutscene involving a mysterious "Regal Feline" (Whom is revealed to be Cait Sith) you appear in an area two decades in the past, lying unconscious on the ground. You later meet with the Regal Feline, whom claims to want to lessen the pain of the era you have fallen into - the infamous Crystal War era. Not much is known beyond this point.
