ToZ novel chapter 1 translation reuploaded
*waves at tag* Hello, is this thing still running? I’m speaking as a sub-moderator of this blog and translator for the first chapter of the novel, which is apparently no longer available from its previous source. We’ve received a few messages about it. And----although I haven’t spoken to the rest of the team, I’m quite sure that they would agree----I figure that newcomers to the fandom should have the resource they need, because that description of Mikleo shouldn’t be missed for all the world.
Tales of Zestiria Novel Prologue-Chapter 1
Caveat : this is based on my raw translation file, and is missing the illustration scans we had when we put it up for the group release. The text should be entirely there, however. The translation was also made before the game was released in English, and therefore various place names and technical terms are not up to the ‘canon’ as of this date.
As for the rest of the novels: you’ve probably guessed it by now, but I as the original translator at least wouldn’t be doing them. The good news is that the Japanese level in it is quite easy, so if you’re intermediate level you can make headway into the books without too much effort, and interested persons can make it without too much trouble. The group, or any other group, should also feel free to pick it up if they want to see the other new additions. I’ve translated the epilogue to the novel elsewhere as well.
Thank you for enjoying our works!
