Well she may have published her first book in Marlon but if she's really so popular, it could've circulated outside. She seems to have published several books since then.

I'm sure the "magic experiment" is a reference to Project Ma, and there must have been some survivors, since Lukana is allegedly descending from Leviantans.

Hard to say what it means about Irina. I've always been under the presumption she never found out who Abyss I.R./Julia's identity was until the letter. But, all the aftermaths are inconsistent in telling parts (Irina's doesn't say what happens to her after the Duel of Merigod but Germaine's say she (Julia) was defeated by Elluka). Since the Lemy the Ripper section says she found out about Irina from the letter she sent, I think we should keep our articles written under that presumption.

And I have no idea about this coup. It's vague. It could be referring to when Beelzenia took over Retasan, or that the the citizens rebelled against Beelzenia afterward. Our translations of Praeludium do say the people were getting tired of constantly changing political allegiences of the years so it could be foreshadowing. Lily also appears at the end of Praelud so its possible this "coup" would get mentioned (and clarified) there.
