The Warriors of Darkness are IMO an alternate version of the WoLs we've been seeing in cutscenes. Basically as they said, they were from a world where they WON. They saved the day completely and utterly. It just backfired rather than being a happy ending.

That said, I think it does open the door to the more sensible/well reasoned world traveling RP characters. I wouldn't say everyone and their mom does/can do it but it definitely proves that it is completely possible.

Also I think the 13 worlds/13 games is too much of a coincidence. While the references are probably small, hidden, or yet to come there's now canon reasons for all those other bits from other FF games. Very cool stuff that I definitely want to know more about.

Spoilers, Hydaelyn was the world from FF1 all along. The Garlean Empire can actually trace back their roots to "I will knock you all down" Garland. And that's the same Matoya. Limsa was built on the ruins of Corneria!

(In all seriousness, if that turns out to be the actual plot twist - the "this is the FF1 (or some other FF) world part," not all the rest - I'm going to laugh so hard. I doubt it will be, but it'd still be funny if it turned out to be.)

But what is the Source, is the question? The place where they go between worlds? The place where the WoL and WoD went to meet Minfillia and stuff?

That's left rather... vague. Until we know more.

I assume "The Source" is the wellspring of the Lifestream itself, which houses the crystal of Hydaelyn. Considering all the sworly stuff in that region and how easily people's aether is moved there, that's my best guess.

The Source and thirteen reflections, with FFXIV's world (Hydaelyn) being the Source. 1+13=14. WoD made it pretty clear that the XIV setting is the focal point. The center, if you will.

You just have to be dead and continue to exist elsewhere by the power of the Echo. Steep price to pay; hope it was.. worth it... No, YOU'RE crying! Shut up.
