It should be known also that Magitek weaponry can actually destroy an Aetheryte node and gate, by negating the flow of energy. This has lead to some concern that the Garlean Empire may be able to eventually design a weapon that could perhaps even destroy Aetheryte Crystals, though so far, none exists yet.

(( Work in Progress. Check back later! ))

A

Adventurer
A term used by those in Eorzea for the young men and women who seek fortune and fame by acting like explorers, fighters, and crafters. An Adventurer is almost like a mercenary, but not quite. Though the line between the two is very faded.
Aether
The magical energy and life force of Hydaelyn. It flows through all living things, from the trees, to the animals, and even people. It is believed by the people of Eorzea that the Aether ties all things together, which is why when someone dies, their body fades away, for they are returning back to the Aether. Yet Aether is not without its dangers either, as a great concentration of aether is lethal and cause anyone who is around for too long to become highly unstable and aggressive. High concentrations of aether in a location is visible to see like mist, and in places like the Black Shroud, such concentrations have also taken on the shape of what many call “the elements”.

Curiously, because of natural born Garleans having lack of magic, they also have lack of attunement to the Aether flow and when they die, their bodies are known to actually remain, they also have the inability to effect any form of Aether without their Magitek devices.

Aetheryte
An Aetheryte is a large crystal surrounded by a type of machinery mimicking that of Magitek. These Aetheryte crystals are connected to the Aether and act as teleportation beacons, allows one to attune themselves to the energy of that crystal and grant them teleportation to that crystal. There is no limit to the Aetherytes one may attune themselves too and thus for those of Eorzea and those whom can ride the Aether energy, there is no limit to the places one can go, as there are other forms of Aetheryte as well, these are:

Aetheryte Gates: A small font of aether energy that is connected to the main Aetheryte crystal. Aetheryte gates can only be accessed by its connected Aetheryte crystal and requires that of Anima to use.

Aetheryte Nodes: These nodes are small pockets of Aether energy that can be summoned to return someone back to an Aetheryte Crystal in the area. These nodes do not remain long and will vanish quickly.

It should be known also that Magitek weaponry can actually destroy an Aetheryte node and gate, by negating the flow of energy. This has lead to some concern that the Garlean Empire may be able to eventually design a weapon that could perhaps even destroy Aetheryte Crystals, though so far, none exists yet.

Ala Mhigo
Ala Mhigo is one of the city-states located in the eastern side of the content Aldenard. They were a city known for their great military power and great natural defenses thanks to the mountainous and highland region. However there military power was matched and fought off by the Garlean Empire. In their loss they ended up joining with the technological power and now are like many nations that have fallen to Garlemald, serve as a labor force and extra grunts for the military.
Allagan Empire
The Allagan Empire was a technological powerhouse in its time, though it is now a place that lies in ruins. The technology that the Allagans had created is the backbone of what runs the Garlean Empire, but yet so many secrets have the Garleans yet to uncover. It is a known fact, even to the Garleans, that the Allagan’s technological level was so advance, that it would make their own Magitek seem like a child’s play in comparison.
Allagans
The name of the once people of the Allagan Empire. Though none remain, many of their books are still found from time to time and many scholars work desperately to uncover the mysteries of these lost people.
Aldenard
Aldenard is one of the great Continents within the region of Eorzea. It contains Mor Dhona, The Black Shroud, Thanalan, and Coerthas.
Airship
The Airship technology was originally created by the Garlean Empire as a means of transportation. As such the Garlean Empire are the rulers of the skies when it comes to such things as Aerial combat. Though in more recent times, thanks to a man named Cid, the Eorzean people have now also acquired airships, though pale in comparison they may be, they still have their uses.

Airships are considered part of the Magitek technology and operate on that of Ceruleum, though there are a few airships within Eorzea that still use pure Aether energy to operate. Though fewer they are becoming.

Anima
Anima is the aether energy located in someone. It is through this anima that allows those to even use the Aether energy for teleportation, though in teleporting, the aether energy interacting with ones own energy tends to cause light headedness, momentary vertigo, and shortness of breath. Thankfully once someone gets use to it, the effects grow shorter to the point where one is no longer bothered by it.

It is also believed by some scholars that it is through the natural bodies Anima is how the Primals are able to control the people. Though such a thing is only a theory and none are sure if this to be true or not.

Ascians
The Ascians, also known as Paragons, are the minions of the dark god, Zodiark. They have the ability to corrupt, if not outright possess those of weak will. They were the forces that taught the Beast Men tribes how to summon the Primals and perhaps also lead one of the Imperial Legatus down his corrupted path. They tend to appear as people, but none are sure if this is their true form or not. They also have the ability to appear as beasts as well if they so desire. Their main objective seems to create disorder wherever they go and eventually corrupt the Mothercrystal.
Astral
The Astral is the first phase of the moon. It is also connected in some ways to the Primals, as the Primals are able to tap into the Astral flow in order to use their most devastating of attacks. It is believed by this that the Astral is not only connected to the moon phase, but perhaps also to a side of the Aether energy.
