Rolent

Rolent (ロレント地方) is a region in the northeast of Liberl. It borders on the Bose region to the west, the Grancel region in the south, the Calvard Republic to the east and the Erebonian Empire to the north. Its provincial capital is the City of Rolent.

Background
During the Hundred Days War, Rolent was one of the four regions captured by the Erebonian Empire. In an attempt to instil fear into the hearts of the inhabited citizens, they bombed the clock tower.

The region resides on the eastern side of Liberl Kingdom. It neighbors both Bose to the North-West and Grancel to the South-West. Rolent is the only town in the region. Along the Elize Highway is The Bright Residence where Estelle Bright, Joshua Bright, and Cassius Bright live. Further south is the Mistwald forest where timber and wildlife can be found. South, to the absolute end of the region is the Gurune Gate which allows passage to Grancel through the Ahnenburg. Going along the Malga Trail, is Esmelas Tower to the North-West, an old tower left behind by the Ancient Zemurian civilisation and one of four throughout Liberl. central to Rolent is the Malga Mine where septium is harvested by the miners. Going along the Milch Main Road would normally head into the checkpoint into Bose called the Verte Bridge but going through an intersection south leads to Perzel Farm where the Perzel family grows crops.

Rolent's industries include mining, timber, and agriculture. Mining rich septium from the resource-rich Malga Mine is viewed as essential even if there are monsters hidden inside. Farming from the Perzel farm is a major source of crops for the region. Timber from the trees comes chiefly from the Mistwald Forest.

While at home, bracer Cassius Bright received a letter requiring urgent assistance from the Erebonian Empire. This prompted him to travel abroad, leaving his two children behind to handle some of his remaining bracer jobs and errands. Their first real mission was to defeat a crop runner messing up the crops at Perzel Farm. Later they met and escorted two journalists of the Liberl News, Nial Burns and his photographer, Dorothy Hyatt into the Esmelas tower. When they reached the top, they met an archaeologist named Professor Alba, which caused Joshua to become uneasy.

Next, the siblings received a request from Mayor Klaus to retrieve a rare septium crystal from the Malga Mine. After rescuing some troubled miners from the cave monsters, they brought the crystal to Mayor Klaus while meeting a Jenis Royal Academy student doing an interview with him for independent studies. Later overnight, Mayor Klaus's house was burgled. After investigating the matter, Joshua, Estelle, and Schera deduced that the septium was the targeted theft. They tracked down the perpetrators into Mistwald Forest, to discover that the "Jenis schoolgirl", Josette, was the one leading the robbery. The bracer group engages in a fight with Josette and the bandits and successfully re-obtain the septium. However, Josette's brother Kyle arrives and rescues the bandits before they can be arrested. After reporting this mission, the party soon finds out that the Linde airliner Cassius boarded went missing. They decide to investigate and they head to the Bose Bracer Guild to find clues.

Estelle's party arrives in Rolent to find the whole town covered by a heavy fog, which is unusual and not at all familiar within the city. After thorough investigation after arrival, they deduced the fog was also part of Ouroboros' Gospel Plan experiments, led by Luciola and her mist demons.
