Theatrhythm Final FantasyEdit

"Vana'diel March" appears as the opening theme of Final Fantasy XI during its Series Play. As the opening plays, the following text appears on the screen:

"It all began with a stone, or so the legend says.
In ages past, a sentient jewel, enormous and
beautiful, banished the darkness.
Its many-colored light filled the world with life
and brought forth mighty gods.
Bathed in that light, the world entered an age of
bliss until, after a time, the gods fell into slumber.
That world was called Vana'diel."

In addition, the "Vana'diel March" may also be played as an FMS track in a Dark Note if the first number in the movement is an 8. This is the only way to play "Vana'diel March" as an FMS.
