With Patch 3.2, “The Gears of Change” going live on February 23rd, Square Enix is giving us more previews into the upcoming content. We now get a glimpse into the new Main Scenario quests:

Truth. Peace. Reformation. These were the keys to Ishgard’s salvation. So believed Ser Aymeric, acting ruler of the Holy See. However, not all shared in his dream, and in his headlong rush to unite man and dragon once more, those still bound by the fetters of the past rose up to defend their nation against the forces they feared would destroy it. Yet change─that great, inexorable wave─was upon them, and soon all of Ishgard would bend to its will.

A news post popped up today on the Lodestone with a sneak preview of the two upcoming dungeons, the Antitower and Lost City of Amdapor (Hard).

The Antitower:
In all of creation, what greater mystery could there be than the fate of this very star? To sound the deepest depths, to study the aetherial sea itself─for these purposes and more was the Antitower built.

By the spirits’ agitated whispers did the Seedseers learn that a daunting and hostile presence yet lingered within Amdapor’s moldering walls. Unable to complete their ritual of cleansing, once more have the Padjals called upon your aid.

From a (very long) post on the official forums from Koji Fox (a.k.a. Fernehalwes) we will be getting a lore book about FFXIV! Link to forum post here.

In the post, Koji talks about the lore segment from the last PLL this weekend, and how he was in full Japanese language mode when Yoshi-P told him to tell everyone, in English, about the lore book, and all he could muster was, “a little more than a string of words… ‘Uh… Lore…Book…Make…GOOD…’ ”

{Please look forward to it!}
