The sea and sky stretched vast, extending to the endless East. Seven Kingdom Longships, commanded by nearly four hundred Samurai and sailors, replenished with food and water, fully loaded with ship materials, Scripture, gemstones, and weapons, set sail from the world of the Nawa Departments, heading toward the seemingly unreachable Maya.

In the City-State on the island, weathered brick and stone buildings could be seen everywhere, along with hemispherical observatories.
