Heavensward (book)

Heavensward is a book from Final Fantasy XIV in the expansion of the same name. It is part of the memoirs of Count Edmont de Fortemps, detailing the Warrior of Light's involvement in the Dragonsong War.
==Story==
Narrated by the Count de Fortemps himself, excerpts from Heavensward were used as framing devices for the story of the Warrior of Light and their companions as they journeyed through Ishgard and its surrounding territories. After the final battle of the Dragonsong War had concluded, Edmont put the finishing touches on the tome, where it was seen to be but one volume in a large collection of his memoirs.
The book became a bestseller in Sharlayan.
As told in Final Fantasy XIV: Shadowbringers, in a future where the Black Rose had brought about an Eighth Umbral Calamity and killed the Warrior of Light, the Crystal Exarch had looked to the past to summon a living version of the Warrior to the First, in the hopes of preventing the Calamity from ever occurring. He visited the war-torn Ishgard to study the memoir, but determined that the period of history it detailed was too early for his purposes. He would instead pluck the Warrior from a later time, shortly after the liberation of Ala Mhigo.
