The Coleis Plateau in Medietus contained a massive archive that held almost all the information in the world 

HISTORY: The Medietans and their neighbors, the Piletans, had a long-standing dispute over the Sassarian Islands. In a long-ago war with the Principality of Lancaster, the Medietans sacked the Lancastrian capital of Bazantrum and asserted their control over the southern end of the continent

HISTORY: In a long-ago war with the Luvosian Kingdom, General Iskender of Piletus expanded his country’s borders to the Pentacaucasus Mountains and captured the city of Iskenderburg, which produced more than half of all the gold in the world

THE LUVOSIAN KINGDOM:

AIR FORCE: 2nd largest air force

SPECIAL: Luvosian snipers and artillerymen were known to have lethal precision

GOVERNMENT: Monarchy

ECONOMY and HISTORY: The Luvosian Kingdom had an abundance of all resources except water and gold. The Luvosians’ only source of water was an unnamed river that ran from the northern to the southern border of the country. Because of this, the Luvosians had a long-standing dispute with Theoland and the Kufan Kingdom over Lake Kufa, but the Luvosians had to give up their demands after being defeated in the War of the Nations

CULTURE: Similar to Piletus

THE KUFAN KINGDOM:

SIZE: 4rth largest country in the world

CULTURE: Similar to Piletus and Medietus

THEOLAND:

SIZE: 5th largest country in the world

POPULATION: 3rd most populated country 

LOCATION: Between the Luvosian and Kufan Kingdoms and on the continent of Piletus

RULER: Priest Amal Ialad XVI

CAPITAL CITY: Theopolis

ARMY: 3rd largest army

NAVY: 5th largest navy

AIR FORCE: 5th largest air force 

GOVERNMENT: Theocracy. Priests ruled the country in the name of the gods and goddesses

ECONOMY: Theoland had an abundance of all resources except gold, which it desperately needed in order to build more temples and perform religious ceremonies. Because of this, the Theolandians have had a long-standing dispute with the Piletans over a gold mine on the western border 

HISTORY: The Theolandians and Kufans were allies for hundreds of years and supported each other in most wars. The culture, traditions, and government system of Theoland were extremely different from that of the rest of the world 

CULTURE: Theolandian priests did not receive their position by lineage nor merit; they were elected by the twelve elders of the Supreme Council 

When the priest died and the time for an election came, the twelve elders would travel around the country, looking for the person who the gods told them to choose 

Each elder would bring a boy of age fifteen or younger back to Theopolis and a meeting would be held. Seventy elders of the High Council would then vote for the boy who they wanted to become the next priest, or “Amal Ialad” in the Theolandian language 

The elected Amal Ialad would then be, so as to say, “crowned” in a religious ceremony that required him to spray gold flakes all over his body and dive into Lake Kufa

After having done this, the Amal Ialad would move to live in the Holy Temple and rule the land with the help of his advisors until he was mature enough to rule by himself

THE FREE CITY OF SHEFA (also known as Shefa):

SIZE: Smallest country in the world

POPULATION: 2nd least populous country

LOCATION: On the mid-southern shore of the continent of Piletus, southwest of the Kufan Kingdom. It is separated from the continent of Medietus by the gulf of Cessabit

RULER: None

GOVERNMENT: Vassal-state of the Medietan Empire

The Free City of Shefa did not have an army, a navy, or an air force and relied completely on Medietus to protect it from its neighbors 

In exchange for protection, the Shefans gave the Medietans access to their rich oil fields 

If a certain country wanted to go to war with the Medietan Empire, all it had to do was to send an army to occupy the oil fields of Shefa, and the Medietans would run out of oil and likely sue for peace 

Holmis Island:

Holmis Island was a sparsely inhabited Arctic island that was the second smallest and probably least populated country in the world

In reality, it was not a single country, but a group of several isolated settlements that are situated on the icy shores of the Sea of Peril 

Because it was isolated from the rest of the world, Holmis Island was never colonized by anyone except the Ajenians. The Ajenians had tried to set up a colony on Holmis Island in the time of King Rexius when the weather was much warmer 

Legend has it that King Rexius left his scepter on the island. After the weather became colder and Holmis Island drifted further north, the Ajenians left the island. In the time of Ishida, almost nothing was known of the culture, inland geography, and history of the island 

The first outsider to land on the island after the Ajenians left was Lieutenant Karlos Monte of the Medietan Land Army

  • Lost City at Sea   Epilogue

    There once was a saying in the land of Medietus: “What is neither possible nor impossible is neither achievable nor unachievable. All of it simply depends on the individual’s point of view.”That night, Ishida had a dream. It was nothing like any dream he had ever had.Ishida found himself standing on the balcony of a seaside house at dawn. He was staring out at the dark ocean, watching as wave after wave lapped on the shore.Seagulls flew by in the unlighted sky above him. A breeze gently shook the leaves of nearby palm trees. A bright yellow sphere was rising from the mountains, illuminating dark clouds and giving light to everything.Rays of light emerged from the calm waters, lighting up the area an

  • Lost City at Sea   Chapter 42: The Truth Unveiled

    Something seemed off about the Ajenian king’s appearance. At first, Ishida and Rhina could not identify what it was.The king was in a luxurious robe…did he have a crown? Yes, he did. Was he holding a scepter? Almost— he was holding a staff. What was the problem, then?Ishida was the first to figure it out. When he did, he let out a cry of terror.“What is it, Ishida?” Rhina asked.“The king!” Ishida shrieked. “The king’s an old man!”When Rhina saw the king’s long white beard, wrinkly face, and messy white hair, she, too, let out a terrified cry.“What?” Kin

  • Lost City at Sea   Chapter 41: In the Throne Room

    As the wooden door was slowly opened, a flash of golden light flooded out of the small opening in the door and engulfed the entire mountaintop.Finally, when the door had fully opened, Ishida and Rhina had the opportunity to gaze upon the grandeur and opulence of the reception hall.“Welcome to the Great King’s palace! Welcome to the Great King’s palace!” a multitude of voices chanted. These were the voices of King Rexius’ servants, who were all half-fish and half-beaver.The reception hall was brightly lit by crystal-like chandeliers that hung from the high ceiling and were covered by thick, red carpets with golden edges that extended up the stairs and onto the second and third floors as well.

    “Bring it on!” Ishida and Rhina said in unison.The Guardian nodded. “As you wish— let’s get started. The question may sound simple, but it is far more complicated than you can imagine. The question is: what is the purpose of your search for Ajens?’ I repeat: this question is far more complicated than you think.”Ishida turned to Rhina. “I have the answer. You know it too, don’t you? Do you want to say it?”Rhina shook her head. “I know what the answer you’re thinking of is, but I think we should think very carefully before answering.”Ishida ignored Rhina’s advice and said to the giant, “The purpose of our journey was for us to have a talk wit

  • Lost City at Sea   Chapter 39: The Last Mosaic Painting

    Lieutenant Monte’s agent was surprised to find his boss in Rexia Castellum shortly before sundown. It was at the least favorable moment that the lieutenant spotted his agent, clad in an all-black suit and relaxing in a cafe.The lieutenant was unsurprisingly furious. He ordered Sarem and Alamein to wait outside and stormed into the cafe. He trashed the place, turning tables over and smashing several chairs to oblivion.The owner of the cafe and the Del Cealans who had nothing to do with the matter took flight and rushed out the door in a stampede. With no one else around, Lieutenant Monte was free to let all of his rage explode onto his indolent agent.“Agent Lazy-Head!” Lieutenant Monte yelled in rage. “I did

  • Lost City at Sea   Chapter 38: Walking on Water

    Ishida and Rhina were journeying down the steadily declining slope of Mount Siwalai, walking hand in hand. They had journeyed past the meditating sage of Mount Siwalai, making as little sound as possible as they went. The sun was now about halfway between the uppermost part of the sky and the horizon. Below them was a valley in which a vast lake stood in between the feet of Mount Siwalai and Mount Nawarat. The lake’s water was clear blue, enriched by mineral deposits that came flowing down the slopes of the Holy Mountains every spring in the form of melted snow: water. The two travelers said nothing to each other. They simply smiled and continued down the grassy slope of the mountain. “Lake Azure,” as Ishida called it, was soon within an arm’s reach

  • Lost City at Sea   Chapter 37: A Chaotic Conference

    It mustn’t be forgotten that far beneath the clouds, during the climax of the journey of the two young explorers, one of the largest wars the world had ever seen was raging on the continent of Piletus.When Rhina was trapped underground by the avalanche, an emergency assembly was held in Piletus City, with all the Piletan generals and admirals summoned to the palace of Emperor Khartoum the Seventeenth.There, the leaders of the Piletan military forces began arguing over whose strategy should be put into effect and about whether the Piletan forces should be saved to defend the capital or used to launch a counter-attack on the rapidly-advancing Medietans.General Iskenderson, who was the highest-ranking general in the Imperial Piletan Army, sat at the emperor&rs

  • Lost City at Sea   Chapter 36: Into the Blizzard

    Ishida had not regained his consciousness, but he was still breathing and his pulse was not fainting.Rhina went around searching for the “snow raft,” only to find that it had been smashed to pieces by a huge boulder that was brought down the mountain with the avalanche.She then tried to find a log to use as a new “snow raft,” but all of the logs on the mountainside were either splintered, cracked, or much too large to pull.Rhina had been trapped underground for about three hours, and she was now running behind schedule. It would only be a matter of time before the sinks under the horizon and the darkness settles in.Rhina lifted Ishida onto her back, and, with a miraculously renewed and empower

  • Lost City at Sea   Chapter 35: The Avalanche Strikes

    The opening of the cave was less than ten meters away. The avalanche, meanwhile, continued to increase its already inconceivable speed and was just a few hundred meters away from the two travelers.Five meters to go! Rhina continued pushing forward. She was not about to give in to Mother Nature. A few seconds later, her vision was obscured by the huge clouds of snow that rushed ahead of the avalanche.Even though she could not see beyond her own nose, she remained calm. Three meters!Soon, Rhina could feel the opening of the cave with her own hands. She lifted Ishida from the “snow raft” and promptly threw him into the cave. She was about to rush in as well wh
