(Encyclopaedia Eorzea II, page 193) I skimmed through the lorebook just now, but saw nothing else. Everything we know about Ompagne comes from a brief mention in the first lorebook (how he found young Brume orphan Fray plotting revenge for a friend’s death and so took the child in) or in game itself during the DRK quests in Heavensward. This book was my Christmas gift from my fiancee last year. I am a huge Final Fantasy fan and I was so intrigued by the world of Eorzea while spending time on FFXIV! Everything about this encyclopedia is breathtaking. The mesmerizing illustrations, the lyrical lore discription, absolutely magical and extraordinary.
Encyclopedia Eorzea Ii
This weekend’s Final Fantasy XIV Fan Festival featured some great exclusives—like the announcement of the new expansion, Stormblood—but one of the biggest hits of the took the form of Encyclopedia Eorzea, the official lore book for Square-Enix popular MMORPG.
At this morning’s Fan Festival localization panel, FFXIV translation director Michael-Christopher Koji Fox started his presentation by showing off the new book, which won’t be available to the general public until October 17th. Though if you’re here in Vegas and want to get your hands on Encyclopedia Eorzea a few days ahead of time, you’ll need to stand in a five-to-seven hour line. (Maybe not the best idea for those of us who lack patience or young, line-friendly bodies.)
Fox has the rare distinction of being a creative lead as well as a localization director, so he considers this collection of FFXIV lore a true achievement. Written over a five-month period, Encyclopedia Eorzea contains 304 full-color pages and 205,000 words. Fox claims this book contains a 4-to-1 ratio of new-to-existing lore, and was subject to some pretty intense copy editing: Over the course of the writing process, he found and corrected 1000 “bugs”—meaning typos, contradictions, or other errors.
I absolutely loved the first two volumes of the Encyclopedia. They are such beautiful books and stuffed with tons of info for lore enthusiast like myself:D. I was wondering if there were any plans for releasing a volume III which could be focused on Shadowbringers, the way volume II was essentially dedicated to Stormblood.

Fox claims this book contains a 4-to-1 ratio of new-to-existing lore, and was subject to some pretty intense copy editing: Over the course of the writing process, he found and corrected 1000 “bugs”—meaning typos, contradictions, or other.
Square-Enix hasn’t yet created a product page for Encyclopedia Eorzea, but according to information released at the Fan Festival, you should be able to place an order in their online store on October 17th. Final Fantasy XIV has one of the best and most unsung video game localizations in recent history, so consider Encyclopedia Eorzea a must-buy if you want an official in-depth exploration of the game’s complex lore.
