As the title suggests, Final Fantasy X-2 returns us to Spira, the world detailed in the 10th Final Fantasy title. Without giving too much away, the dreaded Sin, scourge of Spira, was defeated by High Summoner Yuna and her entourage of Guardians. A time of Calm settled across the land, and the people of Spira suddenly found themselves free from the shadow that had been covering them for generations. Fast forward two years, and Spira enters a time of rebuilding, trying to make sense of their new world. Out of a job as High Summoner, Yuna teams up with her old Guardian Rikku and a new friend, Paine. They become Sphere Hunters, tracking down the ancient recording devices spread throughout Spira, trying to learn some of the history of the world from a time before the coming of Sin. In their travels, the group finds a very interesting sphere which seems to show someone very dear to Yuna, imprisoned and in obvious trouble. And so Yuna and her gang take off to track down the origins of this mysterious sphere, and hopefully rescue their friend.
