"Agartha is… Well, there\'s a good reason why it wasn\'t being fought over by my siblings. It is one of the territories farthest from the capital, also one of the territories with the least fertility, barely any water, and at the border of the country, which reaches the Great Wilderness, a place within the Atlanta Continent filled with dangerous monsters, ancient ruins, dungeons, and well, countless tribes of demons, beast-people, and other demi-humans." Said my mother, giving a brief explanation. "It is also the poorest dukedom."

"Damn... They really gave us the bottom of the barrel."

"Sylphy, language!"

My mother quickly corrected me.

"S-Sorry…"

"But yeah it is terrible." My father agreed. "I guess it wasn\'t due to spite, the King really had nothing else to offer. The other potential territories that could be offered were being guarded by the other siblings of your mother, your uncles, and aunts. They were so zealous about giving any of it that he had to decide to give the poorest one which wasn\'t being fought over by anybody. It is… the thing nobody wants, this place."

"However, as members of the royal family, even when I\'ve exerted ourselves from the duties, it is still within our responsibility to take care of our home, right? Not for the country to eb honest, but for these people. We have to come help them here and resolve their problems. Probably use our magic and alchemy to find solutions to their daily problems. This will be our task as we settle down." Said my mother.

"I see… Sounds a bit boring, mom... But I guess I can help!" I said with a nod.

"I was counting on you dear." My mother petted my head.

"Sylphy!"

I heard Aquarina\'s voice and saw her rushing to my side. She was probably also moved to the bed after she fell asleep… And Zack as there alongside Ninhursag. Celeste and the rest of her family were still in their room packing things up.

"Hey, they told me that you got it pretty harsh there." Zack said. "Is your grandpa nuts?"

"Yeah definitely!" I said with a nod. "He\'s totally nuts."

"Damn…" Zack sighed. "Well, don\'t feel down over it, you\'ve got all of us anyways."

"I know, I am not even sad dummy, but thanks for the intention of cheering me up." I laughed. "I appreciate it."

"Sylphy! Don\'t think about what others said about you, you\'re perfect as you are!" Said Aquarina. "Half-blood or whatever, that doesn\'t matter at all!"

"Oh, you still remember that…? I already forgot, hahaha…" I laughed slightly nervously. The fact is, I haven\'t forgotten those stupid twins and their parents, which probably told them to say that to me.

"Really? Are you okay about it?" She wondered.

"Y-Yeah, I mean… I was surprised but it\'s fine." I said while shrugging. "I am not that kind of person to get irritated so easily!"

"Eehhh? I don\'t think so…" Zack said while crossing his arms.

"Alright kids! Let\'s get to it." My mother quickly led us outside of the airship, as I noticed the rest of the tribe was walking right behind us. I saw Celeste\'s blue hair and Mist fluffy white hair in the crowd, so they were coming too.

And… right in front of us was Agatha\'s biggest village, which couldn\'t be said to really be a city as it was around a quarter of East Grain. Some areas of the floor were paved, others were completely just dry dirt. There was a beautiful grassland behind and some patches of trees, but there were also an awful lot of dried out trees and it was awfully hot in here.

Houses were very small, the only big ones were like only ten, and they were at the center of this village, the biggest one is where we were about to move on. Mother was granted the title of Duchess of Agartha, and the former leader, the chief of this village, was demoted for obvious reasons and might be a servant of us now.

Whew, I am really going to begin living like a rich girl, aren\'t I? despite this place looking so desolate and all, our house is enormous and very luxurious looking! The other ten houses seem to belong to the very poor noble families living there. Half of them are actually empty as they moved out, and there\'s only three noble families still living in here. All of them were former commoners given titles due to feats they did over the war, becoming honorary nobles.

An old elven man greeted us, the chief of the village in here, which was also simply named Agartha. The other smaller villages had simple names, often named after their most prominent hunter or someone talented that came out of them.

"Welcome to Agartha, Princess Faylen. Your humble servant presents himself to you, holy royalty." The chief, an old man looking like he was on his early sixties in appearance, but probably being way older due to being an elf, had a funny white mustache and a fat, merry belly. He wore simplistic leather clothes, nothing fancy at all. He tried kneeling before us alongside the other three nobles with him, representing the other three noble houses remaining in this place.

"We greet the Saintess and the Heroes that saved our world from the Demon King\'s menace." A beautiful pink-haired woman wearing a white dress and a summer hat greeted us, she looked to be an elf, but her ears were not as big as mine, she was a half-elf! So there are half-elf nobles too.

I guess we are not as rare as I imagined.
