These were the only people canonically transported in the Thaliak time-spell. Everyone else was left to die or flee the battle.
After the Twelvesblades entered the rift through time, the common people of Eorzea who knew of this group of Adventurers forgot who they were, because Hydaelyn reasons. Whenever they tried to recall their names or faces, they simply saw a silhouetted figure bathed in light. This is what brought about the term: "Warriors of Light," again, referring to these Twelvesblades who ignored the order to retreat, facing death to protect Louisoix.
When the Twelvesblade(s) returned from the rift five years later, no one remembered who they were, but their following deeds reminded the people of the Warriors of Light of five years past. Hence why the Main Character starts getting called the Warrior of Light. The name sticks, and through the storyline and some more research with the Scions of the Seventh Dawn it is discovered that this person has a deep connection with Hydaelyn - being Her Chosen. Now the dubbed "Warrior of Light" slowly becomes a reference to Hydaelyn Light, and less so the Light of the forgotten warriors on Carteneau.
So there is only one "Warrior of Light," in the Hydaelyn's Chosen sense of the word. There are a few, but multiple warriors of light, referring to the Twelvesblades of Carteneau.
Hope that clears up some confusion!
That's not the only way the story can go, however. Â If you played 1.0 and reached a certain point in the 1.0 storyline, your character is teleported through time. Â When you logged into FFXIV 2.0 for the very first time, your character appears from a portal near whatever city you set your starting class as during the 1-time character change they gave 1.0 players before beta.
