Canon: Final Fantasy XVI Toplevel Link:Joshua's toplevel (There's no explicit mention of any monsters in the post, but feel free to run wild with what's written below) Fragment Blurb: Rosalith, the Capital of Rosaria (specifically, Rosalith Castle and its grounds)
Rosalith stands as a symbol of Rosaria's grandeur and cultural importance throughout Valisthea (or at least on Storm, one of the Twins that make up the continent). Built and maintained using aether from Drake's Breath, a massive mothercrystal seen off in the horizon on a volcanic island, this small section of Rosalith features military barracks (where some ethereal Shields are practicing, if you're looking to fight someone), bustling marketplaces, and tranquil gardens. The imposing Rosalith Castle looms ahead, but most important is the throne room, where an empty throne oversees a cavernous hall. This is where most of the nightmare energy is concentrated. Outside of the castle, wanderers can find the aforementioned Shields, and some monsters who've 'turned' akashic that is, overexposed to aether (or nostilium in this case), like this morbol. Other creatures that can have turned akashic include chocobos, coeurls, and griffins to name just a few.
