So I'm back with another walkthrough for the next Tales of game. You may
have stumbled upon some of my other walkthroughs for Tales of Xillia 1 & 2,
as well as The Last Story. My walkthrough isn't the best; there's always
something better out there but I aim to bring an enjoyable experience for
anyone who wants to play the game.
What I'm aiming to provide is a guide from start to finish, translations
that are hopefully close to accurate, and if there are like major spoilers
I will hopefully remember to put it in a specifically marked section.
Updates for the walkthrough might be slow. At the time of this game's
release, I will be going through my last semester of college.
Regarding the game, Tales of Zestiria is the next mothership title to be
released as the 20th Anniversary of the Tales of series. If you've followed
the updates since the announcement then you'll already have a good idea
what the game is about.
Basically there are two kingdoms in the world. One on the ground, and one in
the sky (from my understanding). In this world there are humans, beasts, and
the Seraphs. The Seraphs are described as powerful spirits that people
cannot see. Between the Seraphs and regular humans exist a type of people
called Priests. These Priests can see the Seraphs and can call upon their
powers. I believe in the Western version, Priests are called Shepherds.
Sorey, the main character of the game is well, a Priest. He grows up in a
village hidden away from society and lives among the Seraphs. One day he
ventures into the Seraph's ruins, and bumps into the other main character
Alisha. And this is how the story starts. Along the way they collect more
characters to the party, most of them are Seraphs. There are also a type of
monster called Hyoma (official: Hellion), born from impurities of man, etc.
Of course, if you've seen the commercials you will also notice that Darkness
with a capital D is returning and it's time for the Priest to save humanity
once again. There's also a dragon that fits into the plot somehow. And some
baddies. If you want the full synopsis you can use the search bar at the
top right of your internet window and look it up.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------CHARACTERS
[CHR]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------SOREY: main character of the game, grows up in a remote village among the
Divine. His weapon is a sword.
ALISHA: the other main character. She is a princess of the Hyland empire
but her ranking order is pretty low so she decided to become a knight. Her
choice of weapon is a long spear. She cannot see the Seraphs.
MIKLEO: a water Seraph that grew up with Sorey and is his best friend. He
uses a long staff.
EDNA: an earth Seraph who seems to distrust humankind. She has a brother.
Her weapon is a parasol.
LAILAH: a fire Divine, she is Sorey's tutor and seems to be the senior
among the Seraph. Her weapon is paper (which she sets on fire).
DEZEL: a wind Seraph, for one reason or another he seeks revenge against

the Hyoma. His weapon is a pendulum.

ZAVIED: another wind Seraph. It's unsure where his loyalties lie. His
weapons are guns.
ROSE: a human, with strong spiritual powers. She's a merchant that ends up
joining Sorey's journey, eventually being able to see the Seraph as well.
