This expansion transports the Warrior of Light to Tural, a vibrant land rich in cultural diversity. Located west of Eorzea's shores, Tural is made up of two landmasses: Xak Tural in the north and Yok Tural in the south. After years of conflict, these regions have united to form a single nation.

Tuliyollal, a city in Yok Tural, has claimants vying for the throne. It's now up to the Warrior of Light to accompany Wuk Lamat in this rite of succession.
