almost 5k of xillia 2 lore

Spoilers for all of Xillia 2, but is it really a spoiler if the game never even addresses it?

Some info overlaps with Taleslations’ post here which I recommend reading (they also have more stuff on Xillia 1).

I tried really hard to put this in some type of chronological order, but unless I list a specific year please don’t take the order of events as canon. There are also some points at which the lore blatantly contradicts itself.

Sources:

PG = Perfect Guide

OWG = Official World Guidance (which includes five short stories)

SB = Scenario Book (more specifically, the “Family” short story, which has been partially translated here by yume-x-hanabi, who also provided me with the raws)

20th = Tales of Series 20th Anniversary Encyclopaedia

MG = Manga by Ryu Naitou (technically a different continuity but not much in this adaptation actually contradicts game lore)

Thank you to Tales of Temple for their full text datamine which made finding NPC dialogue a lot easier

Anything that isn’t explicitly cited is from the game, from the PG timeline on page 727, or I forgot to source it. Feel free to ask me for specifics, since I did read the vast majority of this via machine translation, and the game’s NPC dialogue is easily missable.

Thanks to @lastthroes​ and @yume-x-hanabi​ for their help <3
