Chapter 20 - Arkpney and the Diverse Valley

Our village, Arkpney, is located near the town of Luminos Cryst. Along with Mechan Cryst, Ergo Cryst, and Logisty, we form the four towns surrounding the metropolis of Aethercrystal, the administrative and religious center of the area. Our village is famous for its healers and crystal artisans, while our valley hosts various tribes with rich history and tradition.

Mechan Cryst is the center of technology and recycling, hosting engineers from all over the world, such as Hitomi's parents, who settled here after unrest in the Kingdom of the Fiery Lake. Although we did not directly participate in wars, our know-how and the export of our products made us indirect accomplices. The Dwarves of the six mountain peaks contributed equipment for the battles, boosting the war trade.

The Non-Pedis, who came from the planet HP1, are human-machines focused exclusively on knowledge. Despite their longevity, they do not have the same social connection with humans, the High Humans—descendants of humans and angels—and the Half-Elves, descendants of humans and High Elves. The latter two races, famous for their longevity, have roots in the worlds of angels and elves who once came here to positively influence the evolution of life.

Ergo Cryst, on the other hand, is the core of agriculture and commerce. It is inhabited by various races, with its residents being the driving force of the valley. Logistics manages the area's resources, ensuring nothing is wasted.

The valley is also known for its products. The wine produced here is described as divine and is accompanied by many types of drinks and beverages prepared from flowers and herbs. The village of Hagourak, near the vineyards, brought the Kremous family to Luminos Cryst for mining work, while the Sodakai, Hitomi's parents, specialize in machinery, maintaining close collaborations. Despite our differences, the valley's communities are connected through cooperation and their traditions, creating a vibrant world.
