Answers:
1: Helena is the daughter of Xena and Hercules. All Hercules and Xena fans know that the two heroes slept together on the Hercules episode of unchained heart. So Helena was born sometime between unchained heart and sins of the past. Xena knowing that she still had a very bad reputation and that she still had enemies knew she couldn't raise this child so she went to an old friend queen Olympia of Macedonia , wife of king Philip and mother of Alexander to raise the baby but Ares caused a great fire in the palace making Xena believe that the whole royal family and Helena had died and thought there was no need to tell Hercules. But as it turned out no died because of Athena and Artemis decided to take the child and raise their as her own. She was trained by Athena.

3: Hercules finds out about her in the series opener.
4: yes Hercules killed Zeus , Zeus killed Hera on the Xena episode of God fearing child and Xena killed Athena, Artemis, Poseidon, Hades, Demos, discord and Hephaetus living only Ares and Aphrodite alive on the Xena episode of Motherhood. But many of the gods were unaccounted for.
5: no Xena is not coming back from the dead like I said the dead stay dead.
6: yes it's true on the last season of Xena the world didn't look like it was in darkness because it wasn't very long after she killed the gods she died. And it wasn't focusing the state of the world without the major Greek gods it was focusing on Xena's last battles.
7: yes to many fans who watched both shows know that the two series who did very well in wrapping up left many unanswered questions and yes this will answer most of them.
8: yes Xena knew about her.
9: well when Xena was killing the gods Helena was in Britain freeing the tribes from the Romans. Aphrodite was the one who told her about their deaths.
10: well no you see the two goddesses who loved their brother Hercules and they were keeping a close eye on Xena refused put Helena in danger and Ares who was fond of Xena decided not to say a word. Zeus did know because Athena told him and he knew about the prophecy that she'll save them but didn't wanted to tell Hercules fearing Hera would find out and kill another of his mortal grandchildren.
10: well Helena bringer of peace is about the daughter of two greatest heroes who save the pantheons of the world. Save the newly founded religion of Christianity and bring order and peace to the world.
