Destructoid is gaming news, community, videos, and sometimes love. Take the tour or jump in with Facebook:

 



Faithful Dtoid contributor WestCabaretDrive (yeah, the Lost Planet guy!) has translated the entire first page of this Final Fantasy Revenant Wings scan. You can see the high resolution version here or hit the jump for the translation. He's also working on the second page which features an interview with Toriyama, so we'll post it as soon as it's in. We need to give him more free video games often!

He writes:

Some of the place names are a little weird. Maybe they're different in the Japanese localization?
 

PAGE ONE

blue letters going down left side:


Once again, an adventure on the stage of the floating continent

picture in upper left corner:


Vaan: It's obvious! It's the start of a new adventure!

upper left paragraph:
After their previous adventure, the protagonists of the original game, Vaan and Penelo, are busy as Sky Pirates. As the story begins they have both wound up at the sleeping treasure known as the Gurevados (?) Ruins. And so, on the floating continent Remureisu (?) located in the high skies of Ivalice they begin their trip.

captions:


Even walking the World map, motion is controlled by touch!!
The character's faces and comic outpourings are developed through conversation


    Penelo: You're late! Vaan: ...Sorry.
Penelo talking to Llyud. Is it about the defeat of that Eagle clan on the right?
    Penelo: When we're in trouble we stick together; that's how we survive.
The defeated numbers of the Eagle clan. What has happened to them?
    Vaan: Hey, keep it together! You're going to be okay!

upper right paragraph:


Recorded as selling over 2,400,000 copies, the Japan Game Grand Prize 2006 (?) winning PS2 FFXII's latest installment comes to the DS. Now we can finally show you clear screenshots and a developer interview in our two-part report.

lower left paragraph:


The Unknown Floating Continent Remureisu


    Remureisu is a general term for both the main island of the floating continent, which rose long ago from the surface world of Ivalice to the upper skies, and the smaller islands which surround it. The climate features differ from island to island in the archipelago.


    Across Remureisu, the free-flying winged members of the Eagle clan, like the forest-dwelling Vaaera clan, coexist peacefully with nature. They are of quiet character, never excessively concerned about anything, never complaining or discontent, and without excessive ambitions or dreams.


    The story of the Legendary Floating Continent, and the powerful mist barrier that has stretched around Remureisu for a period of several thousand years, is preserved by the Eagle clan as the Legend of the Sky.
