engaged in a great war with each other bevelle used powerful mechanical technology called machina which eventually overpowered xanarchand in desperation yu yevan a great summoner and leader of xanarchand responded with an attempt to save his civilization he turned his people's survivors into faith souls that were trapped into a dreamlike state in addition yu yevan preserved an idolized version of xanarchin called dreams anarchand to protect it he summoned a gigantic creature of unspeakable power called sin which formed around him to preserve dreams anarkand sin was designed to use its monstrous power to destroy cities using machina preventing anyone in the world of spira from discovering dreams xanarchin sin's immeasurable power eventually grew beyond the control of you yevin who lost control of his own mind sin engaged in a crusade of destruction in spira beginning with the absolute obliteration of the true xanarcand however yu yevin left behind one method to temporarily impede the creature if a summoner consummates a pilgrimage and destroys sin the aeon used for the final summoning is possessed by yu yevin and used to rebuild sin over the course of time the period in which this takes place is known as the calm a time when sin is docile and regenerating as time passed by a religion called yevin was created inspired by yu yevin himself however the adherents do not realize that they serve the one that was ultimately responsible for spira's cycle of destruction as time went on a separate tribe of people called the albed developed their own language and began to use machina in contradiction to yevin's teachings periodically several summoners were able to subdue sin the first of these was yunalesca a survivor of xanarchin who defeated the monster through the sacrifice of zeon her husband who transformed himself into the final aeon unileska died in the process and as an unscent remained in the xanarchin dome where she greeted each future summoner and explained the grim reality of the final summoning after each calm sin always returned from his slumber to threaten spiro once again many years later a man from dream's anarchian named jack became an accomplished blitzball player and eventually had a son named tidus jacked appears brash and uncaring and titus grows to resent him despite his flaws jack means well and criticizes his son with the hope of making him stronger eventually jack grew fond of alcohol and his addiction threatened his blitzball career instead of retiring though he set out to the sea to train for a return to his profession there he encountered sin who was swimming in the nearby waters when jack touched the monster he transformed into a real human and was carried to spira where he washed ashore near bevelle though he lacked any understanding of how or why he was taken from his home jack's mysterious disappearance made him into a legendary figure in dream xanarchin there he's placed upon a giant billboard and an annual blitzball tournament is held in his honor in spira he became viewed as an insane drunkard and was imprisoned in bevelle in bevelle a priest named braska had a daughter named yuna the product of he and an albed wife when his union with an albed woman was discovered he was cast out of the clergy ten years before the events of the game broska visited the imprisoned jet and eventually requested that he become one of his guardians in a pilgrimage to defeat sin and bring about a new calm alongside them would be oren a former warrior monk of yevin who at first objected to jack's presence before leaving for their mission jack told yuna stories about his home of dream xanarchin at the outset of their travels jack's recklessness got the group in trouble and jeopardized the pilgrimage nevertheless he eventually matured gave up drinking and learned more about spira and the destruction of xanarchin along the way he recorded messages and left them behind for titus should he ever find his way to spira even though he has trouble expressing his feelings jack loves his son and means well when the three reach xanarchin ruins the endpoint of the pilgrimage braska prepared to begin summoning the final aeon in the process however he learned that it could only be created through the sacrifice of one of his guardians at that point jack insisted upon sacrificing himself and becoming the final aeon saying that it would bring meaning to his life oren protested but jack answered that he would try to find a way to destroy sin permanently and break the cycle of its return after a calm broska reluctantly agreed and asked oren to watch over yuna to ensure her future would be a happy one in addition jack asked oren to watch over titus believing he may someday find a route into dream zanarkand at peace with his decision jack submitted to becoming the final aeon when he was summoned by braska sin was defeated but yuyevan's spirit possessed jacked and became the core of a new sin oren couldn't accept braska and jack's sacrifice so he confronted unileska himself she struck him down with her immense power and with the last of his energy he died while crawling down mount gagazette there he left yoona in the care of kamari ronso his loyalty still bound to the mortal realm because of his responsibilities oren failed to enter the far plane and remained unset though he struggles to fight sin's instincts jack used the last of his own control over the beast to carry oren to dream zanarkand after he arrived oren watched over titus who followed in his father's footsteps to become a star blitzball player for this anarch and abes and now the events of the game begin ten years after jack disappeared dreams anarchin remains a bustling metropolis titus makes his way to the local stadium for an annual blitz ball tournament named in his father's honor along the way he's trailed by a faith after signing autographs for adoring fans he glances at a giant sign featuring the likeness of his father who he remains bitter toward pushing his way through hordes of fans titus makes his way into the stadium as the game begins oren stands high above the city as a catastrophe is about to unfold as titus places hardest in a game a giant anomaly begins to loom over dream's anarchian suddenly giant buildings are sucked upward into its form the monstrosity fires beams of energy that completely destroy other structures and everyone is forced into a panic titus runs out of the stadium where he sees oren who he knows as an old friend of his father as he runs out onto the walkway the faith tells him it begins warren informs him that the threat to the city is called sin and the creature begins to emit enemies that launch into the walkway as the two confront them oren gives tidus a blade and tells him that it's a gift from jack the two fight past the enemies and eventually make their way to a collapsing platform the heights of the city oren pulls tidus up and sin begins to siphon everything from the city as he does warren asks if sin is sure ultimately the two are drawn into the void and oren declares that it all begins here after swimming through the projection of dream's anarchism titus sees the likeness of his father he awakens in an array of gloomy destroyed ruins as he enters a nearby building he's almost swallowed by a gigantic sea creature but he defeats it in order to make his escape in the center structure he builds a fire and falls asleep he has a vision of horan and the faith that was following him earlier but is awakened to a brand new threat a stealthy creature runs around the room and jumps down to challenge him as he does though a group of albed bursts through the nearby entryway and among them is a woman who helps tidus overcome the beast after the battle titus is taken captive and soon realizes the group speaks a language he cannot understand he is taken to their salvaging vessel where he learns that their leader can translate for him he is soon forced to work for them and she travels with them to the ruins below after the two defeat some enemies they successfully salvage a sunken airship the woman introduces herself as riku she says the group are albed and wonders if titus has amnesia after he explains how he and oren were sucked away from their home she says sin destroyed xanarchin a thousand years ago shocked and confused titus insists he saw it unfold before his own eyes riku agrees to take him to luca where blitzball is popular and he may be recognized by someone titus also learns that xanarchin is considered a holy location by yevin and should not generally be spoken of as the salvage vessel sails along the water sin passes by it knocking titus off the boat and sweeping him away in the current titus awakens on the island of basaid where he's hit by a blitzball from the local team in impressive fashion he kicks the ball back to the group and they all wonder which team he plays for he's then introduced to waka the captain of the besade aurochs he informs titus that sin destroyed all cities in spira that used makhana technology long ago this was interpreted as a sign of punishment for violating the doctrine of yevon which prohibits the use of machina titus is invited to play in the upcoming blitzball tournament where all teams in spiro will congregate after learning the oroks have failed to win a single game in a long time titus advises waka to work on building confidence among the team in beside titus also becomes aware of the crusaders a group dedicated to driving sin away from civilization at the local temple he is told that the true task of overcoming sin belongs to summoners who take part in a legendary pilgrimage to summon a final aeon to defeat it while taking a nap titus has another dream of his childhood where he has a total disregard for his father's disappearance titus soon becomes aware that waka is a guardian who helps protect summoners along their pilgrimage they enter the local cloister of trials where summoners travel to prey at the end they eventually reach two other guardians the ransom kamari and the black mage lulu there a young summoner named yuna braska's daughter emerges in a weakened state from the cloister after having overcome its challenge having accomplished the initial step in her path as a summoner she now commands the power of valifer her first aeon titus introduces himself to yuna and encourages her to continue her journey as a summoner she asks him to tell her more about zanarkand on the boat they both plan to take the next day that night he has another dream where his disdain for his father is recalled once more when tidus awakens he overhears lulu and waka discussing chapu waka's brother and crusader who was killed by sin after the blitzball tournament waka plans to retire from blitzball and become a full-time guardian titus thanks him for all of his help so far the next day he gives titus chapu's sword and explains the calm sin sedentary period of regeneration kamari soon confronts titus to test his aptitude in battle after sparring they embark for kalika where there's a summoner temple on the boat titus and yuna discussed their past titus discovers that yuna knew a man named jack when she was young because he was her father's guardian titus doubts his father was the same jet but he startled to learn that yuna first met him almost exactly around the time he vanished in that moment sin abruptly plunges from the sea shaking the boat wildly with its power waka orders the crew to fire its harpoons at the beast's fit they do so latching it to the boat the group attacks the finn but sin pushes through to kalika where it unleashes utter destruction on the port at this point titus begins to accept that he won't be going back home as they reach shore yuna performs ascending ritual to ensure that the souls of those that died in sin's attack reach the far plane afterward yuna expresses her desire to make titus one of her guardians but waka and lulu are reluctant to permit it on the way to the temple a sin spawn attacks but titus and the group are able to overcome it just outside the temple the besade aurocks are also taunted by the arrogant luca goers a rival blitzball team from spira inside they also meet donna another summoner who's rude toward yuna in the group nevertheless she is also equally committed to defeating sin in addition titus learns that the faith are the souls of those who willingly gave their lives to defeat sin and are beckoned by summoners as aeons after unipraising the temple she emerges once again in a weakened state tidus recognizes the hymn of the faith a song that glorifies yevon as a song that also existed in the xanarchin he knew now that eunuch can command e free a new aeon they all set sail for the blitzball tournament in lucca on the way yoona reveals that in her youth jack also told her stories of xanarchin while contemplating the upcoming game titus recalls failing at blitzball in his youth and being ridiculed by his father in the present day he uses the jacked shot to launch the blitz ball into the air from the boat after witnessing the skill younis says that jack showed her the same move long ago and comes to believe tidus's recollections as they arrive in luca inhabitants of the city flocked to the tournament in excitement as the teams are introduced word arrives that maester micah the leader of spira has arrived for the occasion from bevelle as tidus and the group go to greet him they become aware that seymour guado ordained maester of yevin and son of the late jisco guado has come to luca he glances briefly at yuna before passing by at the tournament the aurochs are seated and only require one win to make it to the championship game while they're preparing yuna tells titus that oren has been spotted near luca titus wonders whether the oran he knows is the same one that was spotted but sets out to find him in addition he teaches yuna to whistle in the case the two are ever separated kamari is bullied by other ranso in the nearby bar just as he defends himself the tournament begins and titus is late for the game to their surprise the party finds out that yuna was kidnapped by the albed sykes in an attempt to blackmail the aurochs into tanking the game titus lulu and kamari then set out to save her while waka leads the aurochs after defeating some enemies yuna is safe from her albed captors when yuna learns that titus was rescued by a different group of albed earlier she asked if he met a man named sid her uncle titus then comes to the realization that yuna is half out bad and lulu insists that he hide that information from waka because he greatly dislikes the tribe in the game waka and the aurochs manage to squeak out a narrow victory and move on to the championship when the group reunites titus returns to the aurocs and lulu is relieved to see waka again meanwhile oron approaches the city as the tournament continues in the championship match titus makes a spectacular impression upon the crowd with the jack shot at the end of the game though he sits out allowing waka to lead the team and put the final nail in the coffin of the luca goers despite their historical losing streak the merced aurochs win the tournament just as the final game ends though monsters suddenly entered the stadium and swarmed the area after titus and waka defeat a group lucas inhabitants hurley run from the danger in that moment though oren arrives just in the nick of time the fallen warrior monk summons his strength once again to defeat one of the beasts along with titus waka recognizes oren as well and describes him as the best guardian there ever was titus and waka join with him to defeat another enemy they are soon surrounded by many more among the turmoil seymour begins to summon an aeon a giant anchor then plunges into the structure and the incredible power of anima is revealed with its unworldly might the aeon easily disposes of the remaining enemies lucas spectators look on an amazement and seymour is hailed as a savior unit in particular is astonished by the aeon's power waka hands the crystal cup to his teammates and retires from blitzball as he intended titus blames oren for bringing him to spira and demands answers from him oren admits knowing ject and braska and reveals their triumph over sin to titus he says he watched over titus and brought him to spira at jack's request more significantly he makes the startling revelation that sin is jacked in utter shock titus refuses to believe it regardless oren says that it's the truth and that titus's best option is to follow him despite his verbal frustration titus rejoins the group with oren to their surprise oren volunteers to be yuna's guardian to fulfill a request from braska but insists that titus become one as well as an obligation to jet in contrast to what he told titus oren tells yuna he isn't sure if jack is dead and hasn't seen him in 10 years yuna attempts to cheer titus up while he's downtrodden and the two share a laugh together their next destination is jose where there's another temple on the way a follower of yevin explains that the crusaders plan to use machina in their next campaign against sin even though it's forbidden by the religion titus asks you know why sin keeps returning after each calm and wonders how it can be defeated for good yuna tells him that triumph over sin relies upon the final summoning the ultimate goal of a summoner's pilgrimage where the final aeon is summoned against the monstrosity in xanarchin after being given a primer to decipher the albed language titus and the group are obstructed by the local chocobo eater however they band together and successfully overcome the beast making an impression upon the locals in return rin gives the party a chocobo so they can make their way to the end of the road at a checkpoint they run into the crusaders planning the upcoming operation meehen against sin surprisingly seymour passes through the area and demands that the crusaders allow yuna and her guardians through as they come to find out seymour is leading the operation which comes as a surprise because it involves the use of machina in an alliance with the albed for the cause of defeating sin the enigmatic maester requests that the group look past the means they plan to use even so waka wants nothing to do with the scheme and accuses seymour a blasphemy at the outpost waka also learns that his brother chapu was once planning to complete a blitzball game and proposed to lulu afterward but was recruited into the crusaders and died at the hands of sin instead as a result he has an outburst of anger against the crusader who persuaded him to enlist and has to be held back by titus before the machina operation is executed when kinak one of the four maesters of yevon expresses a belief that the machina campaign against sin will be unsuccessful because of past differences oren and wen kinok have a strained relationship leading to tensions between them in order to draw sin to them sin spawns are used as bait and titus and the group keep one occupied in combat for a time as expected sin approaches through the sea and reveals its giant form the crusaders fire a barrage of machina artillery at the beast while the chocobo knights charge the sin spawn on the beach despite their attempt to annihilate the monster sin unleashes a giant wave of energy that rips through the beach utterly vaporizing everything upon it including the chocobo knights despite the setback seymour joins the party and helps destroy another sin spot as a last-ditch attempt to stop sin from destroying everything in the area the albed fire a giant cannon directly upon the creature it fails to pure sin's shield and sin manages to deflect the energy back to destroy the cannon nevertheless the effort successfully convinces the beast to turn away and leave the area euno wishes to summon an aeon to battle sin but seymour warns that her powers are still too weak to affect it as he swims out into the ocean to follow sin titus recalls his father's alcoholism seymour encourages yunna to continue her pilgrimage until sin is defeated oren tells titus that sin came to their location for a reason so that titus would be convinced to stop him until he does oren says he will continue killing oren also tells titus not to share what he knows about sin and jack with yuna because doing so would only cause her to distance herself from him when they all arrive at the jose temple fellow summoner isaru reveals that several summoners have recently gone missing and advises caution yunus successfully navigates through the cloister of trials and as a result gains the power of ixion as a new aeon near the moonflow river the group encounters a shoe puff a giant creature that can travel through water oren informs titus that jack once attacked the same creature in a drunken stupor but quit drinking entirely after doing so while using the shoe puff to cross the river the group observes an ancient mock in the city that resides under the water yuna is abruptly kidnapped by an albed that pulls her underwater in response titus and waka swim down to destroy the makhana holding her captive and the group returns to the surface because of the experience the group concludes that it must be the albed that's responsible for the recent disappearance of summoners when they reach the other side of the river titus encounters an albed woman lying near the shore as it turns out it's riku the same albedo operative that helped him earlier as he comes to find out it was actually riku who kidnapped yuna on the way across the river titus reluctantly reveals that she's an owl bed which surprises the group but waka doesn't realize it lulu yuna and riku have a discussion and with warren's approval the summoner decides to make riku a guardian the travelers soon arrive at guado salaam the home of seymour and gateway to the far plane the group is told the maester has personal business with yuna so they meet up with him as they soon learn seymour is the product of a guado father and human mother and that his father jiscal guado spread the teachings of yevin to the guadal people inside seymour reveals a sphere created from the thoughts of the dead in the far plane in the image the group observes xanarchin at the height of its civilization which is similar to the one titus remembers he also shows yuna visions of yunolesca who used to live in zanarkand and was the first summoner to defeat sin it was only through her strong bond to zeon he says that allowed her to accomplish such an arduous feat in the same moment seymour proposes to marry yuna such that the two can unite in the same mission and overcome sin together yuna is surprised but seymour allows her some time to decide oren warns that yuna cannot be diverted from her mission but he persists in his request as they walk away seymour says he's keen to the scent of the far plane and wonders why oren is still among them eunuch's torn with a decision because she thinks marrying seymour may help the people of spira but also express his doubts as well the summoner resolves to travel to the far plane to seek the advice of her father before entering oren decides not to enter with the rest of them there fireflies form images of yunus parents who she converses with waka also talks with his brother chapu lulu also makes peace with his death and commits her focus to life as it is instead yunus suggests that titus and vision jacked but he knows he won't appear anyway because he's still alive as sin he then recalls his past once more and realizes that he blames his father's disappearance for the death of his mother eventually yuna arrives at her answer for seymour though she doesn't reveal it to the group as they all leave the far plane a vision of lord jiscal appears the incident brings oren into a weakened state and he instructs yuna to send him she does so but he drops a sphere that she picks up warren remarks that jisco must have remained unset because he died in unclean death when yuna attempts to give her answer to seymour she learns that he is left for the template makalania the group decides to head there making their way through the thunder planes they stop to rest at rin's travel agency while yuna is in a room titus overhears a man speaking from within it as he leans upon the door to listen in he stumbles and falls inside as he does yoona is in the process of viewing the sphere showing seymour's deceased father jisco according to her the message was his will and said to take care of his son just before the group enters the macalania woods yuna informs them that she intends to accept seymour's marriage proposal she says the decision will be the best thing for spirit's future and yevin's unity oren requests to see the sphere but yuna refuses because she says it's a personal matter however she reiterates that she is willing to continue her pilgrimage and face sin oren hopes that yuna plans to use the marriage as grounds to negotiate with seymour in the makalania woods donna's guardian warns that she has recently gone missing inside an overgrown path the group is confronted by a fiend called spheromorph when it's defeated it drops a sphere left behind by checked and reveals recordings from braska's pilgrimage as it turns out jack began his tenure as a guardian in the same brash fashion titus remembers it also contains a personal message to titus in the case that he ever made it to spira though he struggles to express it it is clear that he cares for his son's well-being and aptitude to overcome challenges after the message oren notes that jack grew to accept his fate and realized he would never return again to the xanarch and he knew instead he gained greater understanding of spira and braska's resolve and eventually committed himself to helping the summoner overcome sin after hearing yoona's decision seymour's butler trauma intends to bring yuna to the makalania temple where the maester is located before they can leave though they are ambushed by a group of al bed including riku's brother and a giant machina crawler when it's defeated waka discovers that riku is an albed as well triggering his anger in resentment he condemns the albed for violating yevan's teachings without support from the group he walks away himself meanwhile the party travels to the makalania temple by way of the makhana sleds left behind when the group arrives they discover that yuna has gone to the cloister of trials with seymour meanwhile titus and the others find the sphere left behind by jisco earlier as they learn the sphere communicates jisco's dire warning about his son according to jiscal seymour murdered him in a thirst for power and has been using yevon the guado and even summoners to feed his own ambition if he's not stopped the message says it will bring destruction and chaos to spirit the group then confronts seymour outside of the chamber of the fate just as they do yoon returns from the trial in a weakened state again and titus in the group reveals they view jisco's fear when seymour asks why unicame she says she did so to stop him joining with their guardians seymour is killed with the help of yuna's newly acquired aeon shiva now an unscent trommel carries the maester's body away before he can be sent to the far plane titus and the group are now branded traitors and trommel destroys the sphere so there's no evidence against seymour the party begins to flee and in the process guato soldiers pursue them through the icy fields eventually they are stopped by a yeti fiend in defeat it stomps the icy ground beneath it sending titus and his friends into a pit now under lake machelania unit tells the group she intended to convince seymour to turn himself into yevin's judgment oren says that focusing on the pilgrimage and defeating sin should be eunuch's primary focus he asserts that they all need to help bring that aim to fruition even if they must defy yevan in the process this is because the faith grant power to summoners not yevaner's teachings the group decides to make yevin's cultural center of bevelle their next destination as they prepare titus and oren noticed the hymn of the faith emanating from the nearby temple a song jack used to love oren confirms that he was brought to zanarkin by sin making the monstrosity the link between titus's homeland and spira titus then realizes that if sin is destroyed he will never return when the singing stops the ground begins to rumble intensely as it turns out the party landed upon sin in a docile state who was attracted to the hymn of the faith titus comes to believe for sure that jack is indeed sin and knows he wants spirit's cycle of destruction to come to an end tidus awakens on beaconell island where he gathers together his fellow guardians but no one can find yuna riku guides the party to the albed city of home an underground fortress guadal forces are attacking the city so titus and the others fight their way through the invasion in the process they meet sid father of riku and leader of the albed inside the fortress titus learns that the captured summoners were taken from the albed and placed inside the sumner sanctum to protect them donna and isaru who are in the sanctum indicate that yuna isn't inside and that many summoners sacrifice themselves to save the others titus argues that guardians exist to protect the summoners and questions why they're being held there riku reluctantly answers that pilgrimages have to stop if they don't she says sumners that consummate their pilgrimage will be killed at xanarchand this means that if yuna manages to summon the final aeon and defeat sin it will destroy her as well riku says the process is immoral and believes that sumner should be saved from such a tragic fate when titus realizes that everyone else already knows this cold reality he has a nervous breakdown and lashes out at the others for keeping him in the dark in the midst of the chaos around him titus thinks of laughing together with yuna he awakens refusing to allow her to die and resolving to find her the group boards the fahrenheit the same airship titus and riku salvaged when they first met titus tracks down sid and demands his help to find yuna enraged at his intentions he slams titus into the ground nevertheless he insists he will find a way to save her from death sid agrees to use the airship to help search and launches it into the air from its underground hangar before they leave the area sid commands his forces to fire its making a weaponry upon hull they do so wrecking the fortress and destroying the guadal forces in the process afterward the albed crew has located yuna as it turns out she has been taken by the unsent seymour to the palace of saint bevell where she is about to be married to him admiring titus's guts sid sets course for the location on top of the airship they fight their way past every bethel's guardian worm afterward the airship approaches the city itself as the ceremony takes place in bevelle seymour and yun are seen strolling down the walkway as yevin's forces look on the fahrenheit swoops down upon the city and bevell's forces fire upon it seymour attempts to escape with yuna but the airship deploys clamps that latch onto the platforms titus and the others slide down the ropeways and confront the soldiers as they are overwhelmed and surrounded by wen kinok yuna attempts to send seymour but is stopped by maester mica's threat to kill her guardians if she does eunice stands down and the ritual continues as seymour kisses her he orders them all killed regardless but before they can do so unit tells them all to run and throws herself over the ledge in the process she summons valaphor to dive through the air and catch her as she falls riku uses a flash bomb to divert seymour's attention and they all head to the chamber of the fate waka grows disillusioned by yevon as the maesters themselves are using forbidden machina weapons and devices making their way through the cloister of trials and into the room of the faith titus finds yuna standing before the same spirit that followed him through xanarchan the day sin arrived as oren explains the faith are souls of those who gave their lives to yevon and join with summoners to create aeons the faith merges with yuna giving her command of the aeon bahamut as titus carries yuna out of the chamber though the group is detained by wen kinok they are soon put on trial by the maesters as traitors presiding is kelk ronzo who charges the group with injuring seymour and conspiring to engage in insurrection against yevon yoona reveals it was actually seymour that betrayed yevin by murdering his father and he confirms the accusation furthermore she explains that seymour is already dead and asks maester micah to send him to the far plane per his duty surprisingly micah responds by chuckling refusing yuna's request and revealing that he too is unsent the other maesters make excuses for their hypocritical behavior and micah says that sin can never be truly defeated instead he asserts that it's actually the duty of yevon to continue the cycle of death through sin and give people hope while the maesters maintain power with yevin's hypocrisy exposed completely warren laments the spiral of death that consumes spira titus and the group are sentenced to via periphico an inescapable dungeon meanwhile the maesters imply that kelk ronzo has left yevin angered by seymour's murder of his own father seymour volunteers to kill yuna and the others and when kinak decides to join him after finding lulu kamari and oren yuna is stopped by isaru who confronts the group for their traitorous behavior when he is defeated the guardians all reunite with yuna just as they do though seymour arrives he reveals that he took the opportunity to kill wen kinok accusing him of petty schemes and fear shockingly he declares that he will perpetuate spira's death spiral by taking yuna to zanarkand and using her power to become the next sin facing resistance from the group seymour transforms himself into a powerful being and attacks the party but they are able to overcome him once again after escaping bevelle titus realizes that yuna's faith has been shaken by the experience with yevin in the makalania woods he attempts to comfort her there he even encourages her to forget about sin and give up her pilgrimage in favor of a normal life initially she contemplates doing so but ultimately decides against it breaking into tears titus kisses her in the water alleviating her distress yunnan tends to continue her journey and titus promises to remain by her side the group continues through the calm lands where they enter the remyem temple once a great religious center before the makin a war in the cavern of the stolen faith they stumble across yojimbo who offers his service as an aeon to yuna for the right price from there they head onward to mount gagazet home of the ransom they are stopped there by maester kelk who left yevon in disgust but still refuses to allow the party to travel through the sacred mountain showing her zeal for the cause yunnan insists she is cast aside yevin and says she will bring about a new calm for spirit regardless now persuaded by her commitment kelk opens the mountains to them so they can proceed to zanarkand despite the welcome kamari is still pestered by the ronso that bullied him in lucca baron and yanka who stop him from passing through the mountain titus learns that long ago buron broke up part of kamari's horn so he left the village in disgrace now he stands up against them to prove his strength and instructs titus to stay back he manages to defeat them both who take the loss in stride and baron proclaims kamari's triumph buron also agrees to stop yevin's pursuers from catching up with the group as they travel through the icy cliffs the group finds a memory sphere for yuna left behind by brasca he tells yuna that the future is hers to make and that she should live the way she wants to at the mountains heights the group is surprised to be stopped by seymour who boasts that he already killed most of the ronzo in the area seymour commands unit to come with him to xanarchin so that he can fulfill his aim of becoming sin and destroying spira he also let slip that jack would be freed when he becomes the next sin before titus can strike him down he transforms into seymour flux and attacks the group despite his power they're able to vanquish him once again after the battle titus explains to everyone that sin is actually his father though he doesn't know how it came to be with this in mind yoona is surprised that titus would continue on the pilgrimage regardless but he says fighting against his father is no problem for him on the cliffs the group stumbles upon a giant wall of faith that has been preserved through the ages according to yuna someone is drawing energy from it as he touches the wall titus gets swept into what seems to be a dream and finds himself back in the xanar candy nose just as he gazes out of the city from his home he sees the faith that once followed him sitting inside instead of experiencing a dream the faith says that titus himself is a dream he explains that the xanarchin he knows was the result of the machina war with bevelle and that faith preserves zanarkand and all those inhabiting it as dreams even so because jack and titus have been touched by sin the faith says that they have grown beyond mere dreams he adds that the faith are growing tired of preserving xanarchin and hopes tidus will be the dream to end all of their dreaming when he awakens titus and the group approached xanarchand oren warns that unileska will summon fiends to test the group's strength nevertheless he says braska would be proud of yuna because she isn't frightened of what lies ahead they finally reached the ruins of the true xanarcan a once mighty city in the last chapter of the journey from a memory sphere dropped by yuna titus learns of her true love and feelings for all our guardians on the outskirts of xanarchan the party sits beside a fire while titus stares out into the ancient city within the ruins fireflies construct images from past pilgrimages in the process they witnessed moments from brassica's pilgrimage where oren and jack plead with the summoner to reconsider his decision the images also recall seymour's pilgrimage with his mother who once volunteered to become his final aeon so that sin could be defeated after learning that the summoner and final aeon will join powers the party eventually reaches unalaska the first summoner to overcome sin she promises the final summoning to yuna but requires her to select one of her guardians to become the final aeon the final summoning requires a strong bond between chosen and summoner once the guardian is selected the group is shocked to learn that the summoner's life will end and the chosen guardian will be killed in the process of annihilating sin through the pyre flies the party discovers that it was jacked who volunteered to be brosca's final aeon despite the pleadings of oren to find another way to defeat sin jekt promised his friend that he would search for a way to break the cycle of the monster's return it now becomes clear to the group that in the process of brassica's summoning he managed to destroy sin but also became the next one lulu volunteers to be called upon as the final aeon but tidus like his father before him insists on finding a way to break the cycle unileska confirms that there is no way to do so and that sin can only be vanquished through the final aeon yevin's doctrine of atonement was merely a ruse to keep the cycle going they witnessed a vision of a younger and impulsive oren who ran forward and attempted to strike eunoluska down before taking a mortal blow himself when asked again to choose a final aeon yuna chooses no one instead the entire group resolves to defy fate and condemn the final summoning as a false tradition in opposition to their decision unileska attacks the group with their combined strength they are able to overcome her and in so doing have eliminated the soul catalyst of the final summon as she fades away she warns that even if they're able to eliminate sin another way yu yevin would only create a new one in its place after the battle warren reveals to tedus that he too is unsent struck down by unolesca 10 years ago before he died he managed to instruct kamari to protect yuna and traveled upon sin to dream xanarchin checked asked him to watch over titus and he gave his word to do so as he leaves the ruins of xanarchin sin is sitting outside peering down at tidus he promises his father that he'll find another way and the fahrenheit flies past him while the group contemplates a new plan to confront sin they decide to track down answers from maester micah in befell also the party comes to the conclusion that the hymn of the faith may be the key to subduing sin because jack was always fond of the song when they reach bevelle the party is treated as infidels by the guards but shalinda who's now their captain informs them that lady yuna is not to be harmed when they reach micah the maester has assumed yuna has obtained the final aeon when he learns that they killed unileska instead he is shocked believing they have profaned and subverted the tradition he loses hope that a new calm can ever be obtained again before fading away to the far plane he reveals that yuyevan crafts the souls of the dead into unholy armor sin making him invincible the faith bahamut expounds that if you yevon is defeated the cycle of destruction will end he adds that when the final aeon is summoned yuyevan merges with it consequently if the party can find a way to enter sin and defeat the summoner himself they may be able to bring an end to the cycle even though yuna knows tidus is hiding something he shrugs her off on their way out the group asks shalinda to encourage spirit's people to join in the hymn of the faith so that sin can be brought into a docile state making a stop at badge temple they enter the room of the faith inside is the soul of seymour's mother who admits that seymour sowed the seeds of hatred long ago as they find out her desire to give seymour strength once led them to take a pilgrimage to xanarchin together when she agreed to become his final aeon seymour only thirsted for more power instead of using the final aeon against sin he took onoma for himself she bestows to yuna the dark aeon anima and asks the group to use it to destroy sin they also return to remyem temple where they break the seal on the temple's back door to enter a new chamber within they find the magus sisters who also give their as aeons to yuna the hymn of the faith is broadcasted throughout spirit which seems to put sin at ease sid intends to use the ship's weapons to get the group inside so they approach with the fahrenheit when they do so however sin unleashes an incredible volley of shots that rip through the surface of spira in response sid orders the deployment of the fahrenheit's cannon with the weapon the ship makes two direct hits both of which break off sin's arms before the cannon becomes dysfunctional titus in the group takes the opportunity to jump onto sin and attack its weak point afterward sin is weakened and goes into free fall in a grand display it crashes down into the water near buffal in a discussion with tidus yuna realizes that the aeons can be used to lure yu yevan out of sin before you can merge with the final aeon providing a possible strategy to defeat the ancient summoner yuna realizes yu yevan is summoning something and titus confirms it as the dream of the faith of which he is apart after a time sin regains some of its strength and jumps out of the water latching itself to the pinnacle of bevelle sid orders the crew to bring the fahrenheit right to its mouth as they get closer sin begins to fly again and the party fights the beast head on eventually it opens its giant mouth and the airship is pulled forward into it along with the crew within sin the group finds seymour who has been absorbed by the beast still consumed by his obsession with sin he says he will use the opportunity to control the world he takes yet another powerful form seymour omnis and attacks the group devoted to his undoing the party is able to defeat him once again in a watershed moment yunus sends him to the far plane just as he boasts that spirit's sorrow will still prevail in the core of sin titus comes face to face with jekt who says he's losing control of himself as he is about to turn fully into sin when jack proposes to end it all titus declares that he hates him ready to get things over with jack begins to empower himself and walks backward despite an attempt by tidus to catch up with him he falls off the side of the ledge as he does so their whole surroundings rumble and the image of dream's xanarchin begins to illuminate around them a giant hand reaches up to the ledge revealing jacked in his final aeon form after a grueling fight titus and the others overcome eject and the aeon falls to the ground and explodes now back in human form t discomforts eject as he dies when he tells his son to save his crying for later titus responds that they have a job to do he urges the group to call forth the aeons to destroy you yemen and fades away to the far plane as yuyevan appears before the maul yuna calls forth each of her aeons one by one as they appear each aeon is possessed by yu yevin and defeated while yuyevan is in its parasitic form titus finally reveals to everyone that when the ancient summoner is defeated he will disappear too because he is a dream of the faith still devoted to the task he charges forward the party joins together and fights the summoner who surrounds himself with protected pagodas after a hard fight yuyevan drifts upward and explodes releasing immense rays of light while this transpires people from all around spirit gaze into the air completely and not realizing that titus and his friends must have been successful at ending the death spiral celebrations break out in each of spears temples faith finally begin their slumber no longer needing to dream at all atop the platform yuna sends oren who is ready to go to the far plane as he fades away he proclaims that spirit is theirs now in defeat sin perishes in a giant explosion that surges through the sky meanwhile yunus sends oliver aeons and titus notices he is beginning to fade as well atop the fahrenheit he tells yuna he must leave and apologizes he couldn't show her xanarchin without wanting to prolong the goodbye he walks forward but yuna runs up to titus and falls right through him in that moment yuna declares her love for him before fading away completely he embraces her warmly walking forward he lunges off the fahrenheit entering the far plane to the greeting of braska oren and jekt who he has now made peace with still distraught over the loss of tidus yuna speaks to a gigantic crowd assembled from all parts of spira she says she knows that everyone has lost something precious to them but their struggle has ended and sin is gone in a new spira with an eternal calm yoona urges everyone never to forget the friends they have lost or the dreams that have faded shortly
