☀️ Arselia and Akonia

The destination of the southern group turned out to be ruins.

After a lengthy examination, it becomes clear that in ancient times this was a school of martial arts focused on understanding the world around. Fortunately, even though no one was here, stone tablets with text and walls bearing the same were well preserved, and a character with knowledge of the Calcite language could understand what was being discussed. From what was written on the main wall (which also bore an image of some woman, apparently the founder of this place), one could learn that contrary to Marduk's information, the "official" name of this location was "Baldr Memorial", and the name of the martial art was "School of Gungnir von Breckendorf". In addition to information directly related to this craft, the stone tablets and walls told about the history of the inhabitants of the city Baldr.
