Across vast brown-black fields, lush hills stretch farther and farther, rising until they transform into towering mountains across the horizon.
Standing where Horn is, facing those mountains, behind them lies the birthplace of the Pope Country—Daze Village.
Currently, the river flowing through Joan of Arc Castle originates from the Ibe River, requiring canals and several tributaries to merge into the Nao'an River.
If the new river project in Daze Village succeeds, it will allow a direct downstream flow from Autumn Dusk Island to Rapids City.
Of course, given the significant difference in elevation from the lakes of Daze Village to the plains, it surely involves traversing mountain rivers, and possibly small waterfalls, making upstream navigation challenging.
But as long as there is this one-way river route, it would be a huge benefit for the isolated Daze Village.
