After The Final Battle:
The huge explosion caused by the Sun-cryst and Bahamut weakens the barrier of Mist around Lemurés, opening it up to the outside world. Sky pirates quickly descend on it, eager to reap its bounty.
Mydia, a feol viera and descendant of Feolthanos, discovers the Cache of Glabados before Balthier gets there. Reading Feolthanos's words to his descendants, and hearing the rumors that Lemurés is linked to "the Eternal", she uses the Cache to summon the Galbana and travel to Lemurés, in the hopes of reviving her dead lover Velis. Once there, she is taken over by Feolthanos's will and transformed into the Judge of Wings. She begins distributing auracite to the sky pirates who arrive, carrying out Feolthanos's intent of amassing an army to return to Ivalice and wage war on it. In the meantime, chaos ensues.
