Fizzy's Zesty Newsletter: Decrypting the World of Hal - Kingdom of Litt Section
[p]Hiyah~ This is the Green Knight, Fizzy (・ω・)ノ Delivering the hotly anticipated "Hal Continent Crash Course" right to your doorstep~ Rejoice! flutters cape unfolds map Let's take a little jog from the whole continent all the way to the key cities! Here we go![/p][p][/p][p]
[/p][p]The Hal Continent is currently the only (Fizzy can't guarantee this, you know!) known ancient landmass where life exists. Its central region has the highest concentration of human activity and is divided into five great kingdoms: the Northern Kingdom, Litt Kingdom, Spania, Gules Kingdom, and Lan Kingdom. All exist under the protection of the Sanctum of the Divine Body, forming the "Light Belt" that sustains human civilization.[/p][p]Beyond the "Light Belt" lie the evil Dark Lands, scattered with locations like the Wee Garden, Witchwood, Toxic Marsh Canyon, Land of Exile, Shattered Archipelago, Zenith Spire, and the Endless Grasslands—regions ruled by the top Exiled Ones known as the "Calamities."[/p][p]Apart from these two fundamentally opposed zones, there is also a No-Man's Land. Bordering the Northern Kingdom, while considered a human settlement, it operates outside the Sanctum's control. Perpetually engulfed in warfare, it even served as the birthplace of the Church of the Exiled. Everyone, please don't mistake those followers for ordinary people. Be sure to stay away from them and be very careful![/p][p]
[/p][p]The Kingdom of Litt, where our story begins, is nestled in the northeast corner of the five kingdoms. It borders the Great Rift—a natural barrier—to the north, the economically vibrant Spania (hometown of the Blaze Commander) to the south, and the frigid Northern Kingdom to the west. To its east lies the Zenith Spire, the domain of Welrd, one of the Seven Calamities.[/p][p]Litt's ancient history is a long, long tale. It once came incredibly close to "domination" under the rule of King Beo, yet today it is the smallest in territory among the five kingdoms. The common folk here are known for their simple, honest customs, making a living from agriculture and animal husbandry. They also excel at brewing, with Tibury Mead being the most famous—renowned for its sweet and delicious flavor. Oh, and just between us... former Divine Wrath Knights Captain, Lord Heronric, was born here... Shhh, keep it quiet, ha! ( ˘ω˘ )[/p][p][/p][p]
[/p][p]Not far from the border of the Kingdom of Litt lies the small village of Luffa Village. To its northeast stands the Eastern Fortress, a crucial stronghold for defending against the Exiled Ones. Its primary role is to hold the front line against the threat of the "Calamity" Welrd, while the Sanctum-controlled city of Eliven handles daily logistical support from the rear. The Eastern Fortress is heavily guarded, so everyone, please do not approach without good reason. If you need to visit Eliven on business, remember to apply for a pass first![/p][p]Additionally, as of this newsletter's publication, the Blaze Commander is en route to Luffa Village to conduct an appraisal for a suspected "Flesh of the Divine Body vessel." May the outcome be successful, granting us another comrade to fight alongside.[/p][p]That's all for this issue! If there's any region you'd like me to "poke around," just leave a message for Fizzy. I'll zip right out through the "Jade Shortcut," scout it out, and zip back to report! Sending hearts![/p][p]Well then, I'm off to get busy now~ Hiyah~![/p]
