Felghana (フェルガナ地方) is a region in northeastern Europe, situated between Gllia and Garman. It serves as the setting for Ys III: Wanderers from Ys and Ys: The Oath in Felghana.
Background[]
Surrounded by mountains and the Sienna Bay (シエナ湾), Felghana's development has been lagging behind. Its inhabitants enjoy a modest but steady life, built on the mining of the high-quality rock mineral native to the region known as raval ore (ラバール鉱).
Before the start of Ys III: Wanderers from Ys and Ys: The Oath in Felghana, Romn noble Count McGuire took control of the area. He levied exorbitantly high taxes and pressured the people into forced labor. Furthermore, he established chapels to spread the influence of Romn's official religion, deo-christa. Faith is strong among the people, but they also hold on to their traditional animist religion deo-anima and continue to pass down legends and folklore.
Days before Adol Christin and Dogi arrive in Felghana, Dogi's home region, Count McGuire ordered the closure of Tigray Quarry, Redmont Town's primary source of income.
