The land of Ivalice. The city of Dalmasca. In the midst of the happy occasion
of Lady Ashe of the Kingdom of Dalmasca and Lord Rasler of the Kindgom of
Nabradia's wedding, Nabudis, the capital of Nabradia, falls to the Archadian
empire in their quest for dominance. Out of fear that Dalmasca is next, King
Raminas sends Basch and Lord Rasler to lead a defense force at the fortress of
Nalbina. Lord Rasler falls in combat and is mortally wounded. Rasler is
carried back to Dalmasca and laid to rest along with the hope of the
surrounding region. King Raminas gives in to the demands of the Archadian army
and travels to Nalbina to sign a treaty.
And so a brand new chapter of Final Fantasy opens as you take control of a
young soldier named Reks, and move onward to a group of freedom fighters that
will help to decide the fate of Dalmasca and of the Archadian empire itself. A
story full of power-hungry betrayal, tragedy, honor, and revenge is about to
revolve around a princess that has lost her kingdom but is still trying to find
the means to restore it. What aid will she seek to satisfy her goals? Does
she only fight for revenge? What drives her? Will she be content with her
decision? All those questions will be answered as she journies the world of
Ivalice with her newfound companions.
