Delita's story is widely known through Ivalice as that of a commoner who became a king and brought peace to a chaotic kingdom, while Ramza, his friend, is of little mention in history, and is branded a heretic. Arazlam Durai, a historian researching these events many years later, narrates that history has made Delita the only hero of the War of the Lions. Arazlam asks the player to consider if this is the "truth", and if they will help Arazlam find the true answer. Arazlam's research forms the frame story for Final Fantasy Tactics.
