Themes in this story - spoilers

[Spooniest]

It's hard to pin down any thematic content in such a bare-bones plot, but one of the themes seems to be how things move in cycles. One of those "circle of life" sort of tales, that reminds people to make the most of the time they have.

How bout you? What's your idea of the theme behind this game's plot?

I'm going to allow unhidden spoilers for this thread, as if anyone can have the plot of FFI spoiled really.

And we're off!

The futility to fight ones destiny.
The four warriors of light are destined to restore the crystals.
