The narrative of Final Fantasy XII is a stark departure from the "save the world" tropes of its predecessors. It is a political drama focused on the struggle of the small kingdom of Dalmasca, caught between the warring empires of Archadia and Rozarria. Players follow Vaan, a street urchin, and Ashe, a fallen princess, as they navigate a world of airships, ancient deities, and complex betrayals.
