Lore
Prior of becoming the Oracle of Light, she was known as Minfilia Warde. She was contacted by Hydaelyn and was brought before the Mothercrystal and bequeathed with part of her power, being chosen to act as The Word of the Mother, the voice of the goddess. She continues to watch over the Warrior of Light in their hardships in Ishgard.
Some time later, during the investigation into where the remaining Scions had disappeared, the Warrior of Light and Krile return to the last location Minfilia was seen, and the Warrior was brought before the Mothercrystal, and learned of Minfilia's fate, and why she was chosen by Hydaelyn. The Scions, after hearing this, choose to continue her mission to better Eorzea in her stead.
When the Warriors of Darkness appeared on Eorzea and began attacking Primals, and eventually came head-to-head with the Scions and the Warrior of Light, thanks to the machinations of Urianger, they were brought before Minfilia, who offered to use the power she was bestowed with to halt the Flood of Light that was destroying their home on The First. She says goodbye to her friends, knowing she most likely will never return.
On The First, with the help of the Warriors of Darkness, she is able to use the last of her power to halt The Flood. She leaves Ardbert's spirit on The First, telling him he has a greater mission to come. She becomes a figure of legend to the people of Norvrandt, and like the Ascians, is able to pass a part of her power to others in an attempt to aid the people in the battle against the Sin Eaters. This continued for a hundred years, until her most recent "reincarnation" was captured and held in prison by Vauthry, a man working in league with the Ascians to control the Sin Eaters to gain power over the remaining people. When the girl is rescued by Thancred after he is accidentally pulled into The First by the Crystal Exarch, Minfilia briefly enters the body of the girl, expressing that she has little time remaining, and intends to pass her powers on to the girl should she accept being the new Oracle of Light.
After the Warrior of Light arrives on The First and becomes involved in the incidents there, the young "Minfilia" realizes that she must accept the true Minfilia's power to effectively hunt the Lightwardens. The girl meets with Minfilia, and is blessed with the last vestiges of her power. Minfilia thanks the girl and the Warrior of Light for everything they've done, then passes away, back into aether and returns to the Lifestream. Hydaelyn, grateful for everything Minfilia did, returns her aether back to The Source.
