The Durai Papers are a set of documents mentioned by Jenomis cen Lexentale during several quests within the Return to Ivalice Alliance Raid series.
Origins
During the Ivalician "War of the Lions", an orphan named Orran Durai crossed paths with Ramza Beoulve, his sister Alma Beoulve, and Delita Heiral, who would go on to form the Zodiac Braves. It would be Orran who penned the Durai Papers -- an account of Ivalice and the War of the Lions detailing what truly occurred during that turbulent era. Following the War of the Lions, Orran believed the people of Ivalice had a right to know the truth of Ramza's involvement, and set about documenting his deeds. When the Church of Glabados learned of his intent, however, they branded him a heretic, and had him burned at the stake. The Durai Papers were never published, and any existing copies were gathered and sealed away in church vaults -- the truth about Ivalice along with them.
Orran's descendant, Arazlam Durai would eventually adopt the alias of Jenomis cen Lexentale to blend in with the Garlean society he immigrated to after the fall of Dalmasca. Like his ancestors before him, he inherited a transcript of Orran's work copied from an early draft -- the only version of The Durai Papers to survive to the present day.
