Lore Book Revelations

[Balipu]

Eula's masquerade will likely remain intact in perpetuity. For us as players, though, it finally solves the mystery of, "Who was that woman that Nael was rebuilt as?" Answer: It was Eula, Nael's sister - and there was no rebuilding. Nael was Eula in disguise all along.

Honestly, this answers things satisfactorily for me. Especially now that I know the whole gender bender was created due to a miscommunication between developers. XD

Well technically there was rebuilding cause her body was vaporized by the calamity and Bahamut made her a new one. She even recongnized the body as not her own. But it looked exactly like her original one.

So, the lore book was released but as a pre order that will be shipped 12/27/2017. Did they run out of the first batch or did they intended for the first batch to be released next year?

The store page itself says the release date is today. Maybe that's a dummy date? Even if they needed to do another printing there's no way it'd take over a year!

I see today as a release date, yet it's listed a pre-order and says the date is subject to change. I pre-ordered it asap, but my order confirmation doesn't list a ship date.

Says it sold out 30min after it went up. I was on the last confirmation point, too, when it told me...

[MercuryD]

Sold out already!!!! Why must I have to work to fuel my obsession of this World?!

[PArcher]

Yeah, I'm really disappointed it's sold out already. Work got in the way

At least I won't spend my life savings on the lorebook

So do we have clear explanation of the cosmos now. With the sourcer, the shards, the hells and heavens and the aether?
My understanding: We are at the source, there are 13 shards, both the source and the shards have seven hells and seven heavens (bringing the total number of afterlifes to 182) and the aetheric sea around them.

Also is there anything on Rowena besides mentions of the House of Splendors here and there? Do we finally learn what she's doing?

Also is there something new for Yugiri? Full name or her actual position back when Doma was still around?

It was Ratatoskr herself that told Thordan about dragon's Eyes being the source of their power, here I thought that in the 200+ years man have lived in peace with them that they kinda figured it out on their own ... or an Ascien told them. Much like the legend she's based off, Ratatoskr would travel from place to place to give news/ speak with her siblings.

We now know who bahamut was in the 7 brood artwork

It really goes to show just how much a primal's appearance can be different from the original

Geeze. Glad I ordered this on my work PC and didn't wait to get home. I ordered my copy 22 minutes after it went up, and it apparently sold out less than 10 minutes later.

My delivery status now says "Shipping". Too bad I gotta wait 5-10 days with SE's "cheap" shipping option. At least I'm actually getting a copy.
