History[]

Era of the Undying Empire[]

Geography[]

Tenryuu Mountain Range[]

• Is the border between the Kingdom of Arabakia and the frontier.

Shadow Forest[]

• It was a forest, and the leaves were a verdant green if you looked closely, but the dense trees blocked out the light of the sun, leaving a darker impression. The trees of the Shadow Forest were all so thick and tall that they seemed unreal. The ground was covered in moss. The earth was barely exposed at all. Some of the mushrooms and ferns that grew everywhere were luminescent, Winged centipedes, jellyfish-like creatures that floated in the air, butterflies or moths that scattered phosphorescent dust as they fluttered by, and apes with a spider-like number of arms jumping from branch to branch. There were many unique creatures that stood out.
• The elves resided in a treetop city. There were giant trees with a diameter of over ten meters growing here and there, and platforms had been built out of logs in their boughs, with planks to create floors, and houses and whatnot built on top. It seemed there were bigger buildings that used the tree trunks as supporting pillars. There were what looked like elevators set up here and there. They went up and down between Arnotu and the surface. There were bridges from one giant tree to the next, allowing travel from one to another. The majority of the bridges weren’t straight. They formed awfully beautiful arches.
• There were baskets filled with luminous mushrooms hanging from the buildings and bridges, and they swayed in the wind. It seemed every basket had a bell attached. When the basket swayed, there was a clear ring. The sound of ringing bells overlapped and echoed. It was like music. There were many colored flowers used in a variety of decorations. They were fragrant if one brought their nose close to it.
