The Rising is a celebration to pay tribute to the lives lost during the Seventh Umbral Calamity, the last major conflict of the original Final Fantasy XIV. After the Battle of Carteneau, the land of Eorzea was devastated and led to the Seventh Umbral Era.

Eventually, Eorzea recovered from the war, leading to the start of Realm Reborn. The region was reshaped after the conflict, explaining why Eorzea is different from the original title and A Realm Reborn. Since then, Eorzea has been hosting the Rising Event every year.

There are many rewards and exclusive quests you can do during the event. The types of prizes you can win include minions emotes, and Orchestrion Rolls. The quests and rewards in The Rising tend to be exclusive to the event but occasionally return to Final Fantasy XIV within the in-game store a year later.
