Hydaelican

Hydaelican is the name of the planet on which the main events of the video game Final Fantasy XIV take place. It is a world of varied landscapes, from arid deserts and lush forests to icy tundras and vast oceans. The planet is orbited by two moons, Menphina and Menphina's Little Brother, which play a significant role in its mythology and celestial observations. Hydaelican is home to numerous races, including the Hyur, Elezen, Lalafell, Miqo'te, and Hrothgar, each with their own distinct cultures and histories.

The planet has a long and often tumultuous history, marked by periods of great prosperity and devastating calamities. Ancient civilizations once thrived, leaving behind ruins and artifacts that hint at their advanced knowledge and magical prowess. Over time, the world has experienced cycles of destruction and rebirth, often influenced by powerful beings and cosmic events. The aether, a pervasive form of magical energy, flows throughout Hydaelican, shaping its geography and enabling the practice of magic by its inhabitants.

Various primal beings, summoned by different races or factions, pose a recurring threat to the world's stability. These powerful entities draw upon the faith and energies of their worshippers to manifest and wreak havoc. The story of Final Fantasy XIV largely revolves around the efforts of the Warrior of Light to protect Hydaelican from such threats and to uncover the deeper mysteries of its past and future. The planet's fate is often intertwined with the larger cosmos and the will of the divine.
