Though but freshly returned from the Thirteenth, the Warrior of Light is poised once more to embark upon the road to adventure. In the nation of Tuliyollal, far to the west, claimants prepare to compete for the throne of the Dawnservant. Eorzea's champion is to accompany Wuk Lamat as her ally in this rite of succession—an endeavor which calls them across the glittering seas to the distant continent of Tural. The contest ahead promises challenges far beyond simple combat as they navigate the unique cultures of Tuliyollal's many and diverse clans. Little by little will their journey unravel the mystery of the legendary golden city, and so begins a new tale for a new decade of FFXIV!
