Xenosaga Episode I Der Wille zur Macht | Video Game Movie Cutscenes & Cinematics

Der Wille zur Macht, German for "The Will to Power", is a reference to philosopher's Friedrich Nietzsche's concept of the main driving force in humans — namely, achievement, ambition, and the striving to reach the highest possible position in life. In other words, the power of will to succeed, make, change and create. It is also a reference to free will, a major theme of the game and series.
In Lake Turkana, northern Kenya, Africa, 20xx CE, during an archaeological excavation funded by Vector Industries, T. Masuda and his team uncovered an altar, where Masuda placed a Zohar Replica, causing a giant golden monolith adorned with an aquamarine jewel, called the Zohar, to rise from the lake's depths. The Zohar is a mysterious source of power which serves as a portal between the Upper Domain of U-DO and the Lower Domain of the human collective consciousness, something Masuda and his team were unaware of.

The Zohar discovered by Masuda was transferred to Vector's labs in Toronto, Canada, where various examinations and experiments were performed upon it. An experiment conducted by Vector scientist Grimoire Verum began a planetary space-time anomaly, forcing humanity to abandon Earth. The Immigrant Fleet were one of the peoples who successfully escaped Earth. Since then, Earth had been renamed "Lost Jerusalem" and was erased from star maps, the way to it no longer known due to the space-time anomaly.

Afterwards, the game shifts 4000 years into the future, to the year 4767 T.C., which is approximately between 6000-7277 A.D. Humanity has colonized 500,000 planets in the galaxy, and is connected by a communication and information network spanning the entire galaxy called the U.M.N.

The Zohar has since become lost to humanity since fourteen years ago, when the devastating Miltian Conflict locked away the planet Miltia and the Zohar into another space-time anomaly called the Abyss. Humanity resorted to using less powerful devices called "Zohar Emulators" instead. However, some organizations still want to re-discover the true Zohar, believing it to be the path to Lost Jerusalem, the forgotten homeland of humanity.

Meanwhile, a new race of hostile aliens known as Gnosis emerged since the Miltian Conflict and has been pushing humanity to the verge of extinction. The Gnosis exist in an alternate plane of dimensional existence, and require the Hilbert Effect to draw them into the physical realm for combat. Vector Industries had been in the process of developing weapons that can create this effect, as well as fight the Gnosis directly. One of these weapons is a blue-haired female android called KOS-MOS, while another is an artificial race of humans called Realians.

Unfortunately for Vector, Kevin Winnicot, the original developer of KOS-MOS, was killed in an accident two years prior to the game, leaving his girlfriend and co-worker, Shion Uzuki, to lead and finish the KOS-MOS project. KOS-MOS was still fairly operational, but she had many unknown "black boxes" left behind by Kevin.

The Galaxy Federation starship Woglinde housed both the KOS-MOS development project and a Zohar Emulator, which was discovered in the wake of the vanished planet Ariadne which had recently disappeared. Vector's KOS-MOS team is deployed on the Woglinde in case of a Gnosis attack.
