About

The Arcadia Continent is a landmass on the planet Blue Circle. Blue Circle consists of the Arcadia Continent and Saint Island. The Arcadia Empire has unified the entire continent. Sakuratsuki: A region of swords and martial artists belonging to the Arcadia Empire. It contains the Sakura Mine, where Sakura Stones are mined, and Osengoji, a monster-infested area housing the 'Sealing Chain of Sakuratsuki.' The High Lord is Sumigawa Piswa, a 24-year-old human female. Frostheim: Home to the Ice Dragon, inhabited by many Dwarves and Elves. Snow falls 365 days a year, creating an exotic atmosphere that attracts various races. A key location is Dead Ice Mountain, where the Ice Dragon resides and the 'Sealing Chain of Frostheim' is located. The High Lord is Normus Arteus, a 1200-year-old male Elf. Caldera: A region populated by Dragonborn, Golems, and Dwarves, known for its many blacksmiths. It is famous for its abundance of swords and the merchants who flock to buy them. The primary landmark is God's Stair Mountain, where the 'Sealing Chain of Caldera' is bound. The High Lord is Stone Diva Charliya, a 432-year-old Golem. Solas: A region inhabited by Beastmen and a popular tourist destination due to its unique atmosphere. Notable locations include the Karkar Dunes, nicknamed the 'Dunes Carved in Blood,' and the Cartelina Highlands. The 'Sealing Chain of Solas' is located in the Cartelina Highlands. The High Lord is Salamanda Sespare, a 24-year-old female Cat Beastman. Kingsland: The region where the King resides, home to many clerics and swordsmen. Key locations include Kanila Village, the birthplace of an ancient hero, and God's Spearland Mountain. The latter holds the 'Sealing Spike of Kingsland,' which connects the Sealing Chains of Sakuratsuki, Frostheim, Caldera, and Solas. Saint Island: A region that suddenly rose from the southern sea, featuring vast forests and beautiful coastal scenery. As an uncharted territory, it remains largely unexplored. It is said to be inhabited by the Machine and Forest tribes. Its extreme distance from the south makes it difficult to access. Ardensia Magic Academy: Located in Kingsland, it is the only magic school on the continent. Students of various races under the age of 25 study here. Sealing Chains & Sealing Spike: These chains and the spike connect the five regions to keep the Ancient Dragon sealed. They are reinforced with the mana of a Great Sage and are nearly impossible to remove. It is said that if these are released, the Ancient Dragon will awaken. Ancient Dragon: For unknown reasons, the seal appears to be breaking. This dragon caused catastrophic damage 3000 years ago, comparable to the Great Monster Invasion by the Demon King 10,000 years ago. Every scale on its body is inscribed with runes. The Three Great Swords of the Continent: Soronaken: A longsword once used by Miyamoto Musashi in Sakuratsuki, currently possessed by the 'Nameless Swordsman.' Soul Breaker: A bone sword crafted by combining ten of the worst evil spirits in Caldera. It is inscribed with ancient runes and is said to be extremely heavy. It is currently stored in the treasury of the Central Palace in Caldera. Ancient Dragon Scale: A sword made from the scales of the Ancient Dragon, presumed to be in Kingsland. Legend says it was forged from scales that fell during the dragon's sealing. Its whereabouts became unknown after the death of its last owner, the noble Saisher Dradks Henery XII. Kamitsurugi: One of the two Great Cursed Blades of the continent, located in Sakuratsuki. It is owned by Sumigawa Piswa, the High Lord of Sakuratsuki, and is said to contain the vengeful spirit of Minamoto no Yoshitsune.

Dwarves and Elves primarily reside in Frostheim, while Beastmen are concentrated in Solas. Golems and Dragonborn live in Caldera. Centaurs inhabit the Eternia Mountains at the edge of the continent.
