I mostly ignore it except for things that happened to the world like the Calamity and incursions by the Garlean Empire. Â Mia's entire extended family except for three younger sisters were killed during Bahamut's rage. Â They only survived because they had been sold into servitude to the Coeurlclaw to settle a debt and was not in their village.
I take almost all the MSQ and try to bend, shape, warp the story to fit my adventure. Â Things that don't apply I completely ignore. Â I've had more success fitting the side quests into my stories which tend to follow a structure similar to the classic TV series, The Incredible Hulk. Â A loner comes to town looking for work, they find trouble or trouble finds them, fight, resolution, move on.
In RP, she's not well educated but well traveled. Â She might not know the proper name for things or events but she knows of the events themselves. Â If asked about the more "video game" events of the realm, she will claim ignorance or be skeptical of the claim. Â But I try to be as patient and respectable as I can be. Â If a person claims to be THE Warrior of Light, she'll just nod her head, as she's probably not heard of any such thing.
tl;dr no
