I was riding though Thanalan towards Black Brush, when I just asked one of my FC mates:
  • “I wonder why this place is called ‘The Unholy Heir? How did it get that name?”

Then it continued on, as we started speaking about places within the game and the Lore set behind it:
  • “Why is it called ‘The Eighty Sins of Sasamo’, and why are they considered sins?”
  • “What are those statues and ruins on the way to Waking Sands, they weren’t there in 1.0, so they must have been uncovered during the calamity.”
  • “Why is the Sil’dih Excavation Site basically right under, Ul’dah? Was Uldah always there or did they build it on top of Sil’dih to try and erase them?”
  • “What are those ruins out in the desert by Forgotten Springs?”

Some questions we kinda knew the answers, but more kept popping up.

So the above said: Would SE ever be willing to put out a book of Lore? It could have little facts about areas, why they are named in such ways (because I know y’all didn’t just pull names out of a hat and place it there for no reason!), it could also include the naming conventions you have spoken of before for each tribe and race. You could even release it after 3.0 and add in lore about Ishgard, and the Dragons (like the dragon speech post) etc…

I know it’s out there in parts, that the Dev's post things here and there, and interlaced within in the story line. But its hard to remember everything... especially since I've been playing since 1.0. Also some is assumptions based on the bit of information given in the game, kinda a 'Oh they said this, so it has to mean XYZ happened!' but it's never clearly stated.

I would like a place where it’s all together and it could -at least- span 1.0 and 2.0. Just an idea, since I always buy the CD’s and art books just thought I’d point out something else I’d buy and that I would love to see released!
