*[[Aliahan]]: This circular continent is the start point of the game; it is also a castle town which is the capital of the continent. [[Ortega]], father of the protagonist, is the national hero. At one time, it controlled the entire world, but war and revolution led to its being reduced to a single continent. The town contains the hero's house and [[Patty's Party Planning Place]]. Its position suggests that it may correspond to the mythical lost continent of [[Wikipedia:Mu (lost continent)|Mu]].
