People: Snow Villiers

Snow is Serah's fiance and a former l'Cie. Three years ago, he proved himself a hero when he saved Serah alongside Lightning. After the catastrophe that befell Cocoon, he left on a journey to find Serah's missing sister. The determined NORA leader has vowed not to return until he is successful, and left Serah with an engagement pendant.

Snow once escaped the cursed fate of a l'Cie, but his arm still shows the glowing brand of servitude. It appears the irrepressible hero encountered more than just Time Gates during his journey to find Lightning.

Paradoxes: The Crystal Pillar

During the catastrophe of 0 AF, a gigantic crystal pillar appeared and caught Cocoon in its embrace. This miracle was the work of Fang and Vanille, two women who sacrificed themselves to achieve the impossible.

In the centuries that follow, however, erosion weakens the massive structure. This second threat to Cocoon triggers a war among its people, and the resulting violence brings the sphere crashing to the ground. The apocalyptic age in which Noel was born is what remains of the world after those tragic events come to pass.

History and Myth: The Goddess Etro

In the ancient annals of Gran Pulse, Etro appears as the goddess of death and chaos. She is said to reside in the world where the souls of the dead find their rest — Valhalla.

The people of the lowerworld worship Pulse, the great deity from which the land takes its name. Many tales from their folklore portray Etro as the abhorrent goddess of the afterlife.

In the city of Paddra, however, faith in the goddess was commonplace, and it was said that the seeress drew from prophetic powers directly from Etro.
