Delita's info in Final Fantasy Tactics (PS).
Chronicle in The Ivalice Chronicles version Enhanced Mode, and Chronicles (ブレイブストーリー, Bureibusutōrī?, lit. Brave Story) in the "Classic Mode" and The War of the Lions, also known as Brave Story in the PlayStation version, is a feature in Final Fantasy Tactics. The chronicles are supposedly the story of the game as told by Arazlam Durai, who wants the player to determine for themselves whose account of the War of the Lions was correct: his ancestor's, Orran Durai, whose story is told in the game, from the point-of-view of Ramza Beoulve; or the version of the story that was referred to in history, which writes Ramza off as an insignificant heretic, and claims Delita Heiral was the true hero.
The Chronicle is accessible from the main menu, and the entries frequently updated as the story progresses with information on events and characters.
