Plot[edit]
- Main article: Plot summary of Xenosaga Episode III
Following the events of Xenosaga II to III: A Missing Year, Episode III opens with Shion covertly investigating Vector Industries, with the help of Scientia. She later regroups with the rest of the party, learning about a mysterious new android developed under Vector named T-elos and arranging to reunite with KOS-MOS, who is needed to help rescue the missing Elsa after it was drawn in by the Floating Landmass that had recently appeared in Gedalya Space. Subsequently, the party faces off against T-elos and the Testaments, wishing to enact Wilhelm's will, leading them to an exploration of Shion's past on Miltia and, later, a journey across space to combat the various threats that arise. Consequently, they unveil the many obfuscated truths behind their lives and the universe itself, ultimately resolving to stop the machinations of the Testaments and Wilhelm.
