Tales of Xillia: The World of Liese Maxia

Tales of Xillia did a major overhaul on the official website. We learn a bit more of the world of Liese Maxia.

The World

Liese Maxia: A world cohabited by humans, monsters, and notably “the spirits” whom layed foundation for civilization through their arts. The humans give off a spiritual power called Mana from their brains. Mana is considered the energy of the world. The spirits consider this mana as food and live off of it. In return they allow humans to use their arts. This symbiotic relationship is the driving foundation of how arts are used in Liese Maxia.

The spirit’s artes are used in everyday society for general things as well. They can be used to move large ships, to construct houses, for lighting purposes, things of this nature. The spirits themselves are rarely seen by the human eye.

Countries

Tales of Xillia: Liese Maxia consists of two main countries, one preparing for invasion…

Liese Maxia has two main countries known as ラ・シュガル and ア・ジュール La Sugal  and A Joule (Pending Name) but there appears to be some conflict over the political hegemony between these two. In late years, La Suugal’s king is spreading his authoritarian rule and heading towards foreign invasion…

ラ・シュガル

La Sugal is located towards the south of Liese Maxia.  It has been blessed with a warm climate and fertile land. They focus on the traditions and customs of the past. Their civilization has fully embraced the spirit’s artes, and they put much emphasis in studying and research.  Their greatest symbol of prestige would have to be the largest city on Liese Maxia, known as イル・ファン or “Il Fan” (Pending Name). This city uses the latest in spirit artes to construct very dazzling buildings.

The government consists of a congress filled of nobles, but due to the King’s authoritarian order, the congress is just a title and nothing more.

ア・ジュール

This northern land of Tales of Xillia is described like a developing nation.

A Joule on the other hand is a federation of northern tribes and remote small countries joined together as a nation. The majority of this country consists of mountainous regions and dry wasteland. Some parts even consist of lots of snow. The current king has received lots of support due to his productive and charismatic nature. There are also tribes who have learned how to control monsters for their own purpose. They use them to carry out daily tasks and even perform militaristic affairs.
