MALKUTH EMPIRE PROFILE
this time I will cover in-depth profile about Malkuth Empire, SOO please do enjoy reading it!!
yep that's map location for Grand Chokmah the capital of Malkuth Empire
Okay so we are going to discuss the second faction which is
the longtime rival of Kimlasca Kingdom called Malkuth Empire. This kingdom is
entirely a representation of Atlantis City implying that Grand Chokmah, the
floating capital of Malkuth Empire, FLOATS on sea. Its geographical location is
not far different from Kimlasca as it is at the NORTHERN tip of a continent.
The whole site theme is Blue Ocean which gives a cue that this Empire is strong
in terms of Water Manipulation Architecture.
AS YOU CAN SEE, there is not even a single machinery is seen or installed anywhere while port is available to to all disembarking ships. This Malkuth society found a way to build a dam or some sort of practical water distribution system for taking advantage of water flow in the Empire region (Archimedes Law put into practice YAY!). Apparently, they managed to innovate a method to purify water and maintain its purity for various uses (WOW! Infinite water resource).
Aside from that, you can directly notice that they are aware
of natural environment importance which leads them to grow trees inside the
city while the city water system is developed to irrigate all plants (SMART
CITY MANAGEMENT!). IN RELATION TO THIS, you can notice the crest of Malkuth
Empire which is based on MUSE logo (kinda smart huh! To imitate ancient Greek
tradition).
Next, you will witness better scenery of Grand Chokmah
directly from public park. Here is the access to the palace of Emperor Peony
the Ninth, and feast your eyes with bright azure blue oceanic panorama of the
floating capital with a hint of large aqueduct structures. As I recall, this
the closest thing to be called as public quarter.
FINALLY!! The grand palace of Grand Chokmah as you can notice the water walls and a spectacular rainbow behind the palace, those are controlled by FONIC ARTES, and I assume these are built not only for safety precaution from any attacks, but also for aesthetic architecture. BUT, this is not where nobles live because there are only military HQ and Grand Chokmah palace.
My best assumption is that this empire’s structure is
inspired from Italy, for its aqueducts surround all over the empire as part of
the most fundamental infrastructures to support and provide Malkuth citizens
with rich water resource.
Here is the inside look of the palace itself which is fully
decorated with tall pillars and stairs. I think they managed to discover
electricity as well for interior lightings!
Next, the audience chamber’s wide space is similar to that of Baticul
castle except this chamber is surrounded by waterfall walls which allow
everyone absorb the atmosphere of calming waterfall as well as bright refracted
light from outside (WOW, SMART DECOR! Natural lighting + flowing waterfall)
If we head straight to the door you saw in the main hall,
this is what we will find (EMPEROR PEONY THE NINTH’S BEDROOM), being neat is
not his specialty for he loves individual unrestricted freedom, and he LOVES
rappigs so much. Umm…. Rappig is basically a pig with ears similar to those of
rabbits, and this animal is introduced in Tales of Abyss as both cattle and pet
and Emperor Peony the Ninth is attracted to the overload cuteness these
adorable Rappigs emanate (GOTTA ADMIT THEY ARE CUTE THOUGH).
ABOUT THE EMPEROR: YES! THE NINTH in the line of Malkuth
Empire successions, hmm this should mean that Malkuth is the oldest Empire in
Eldrant for that era, but there had been many kingdoms present before Malkuth
and Kimlasca existed. Well, these two rivalling kingdoms exist as a result of
LONGGG wars among conflicting kingdoms that formed certain factions leading us
to know only Malkuth and Kimlasca.
Peony the Ninth spent his childhood in Keterburg (an endless
snowy region belonging to Malkuth Empire) until he grew up to the valid age of
taking the responsibility as an Emperor ruling in Grand Chokmah, but we never
even found out who his parents were ( I am not going to take assumptions). He
has his own advisor or Prime Minister named Sesemann whose duty is to observe,
negotiate, prepare options for considerations, then report everything to Peony.
Then, Peony will just consider all options on table, make the decision, sign an
agreement, impose policies or declare state of war (similar to Ingobert the
Sixth).
So far, he is represented as a neutral ruler with no ulterior motives nor
any evil plans whatsoever about land acquisition, or even world domination
while the same can be said to Ingobert. Being vigilant is still a normal
attitude for both leaders, but they only care for one thing: PEOPLE’S
PROSPERITY.
To the left side of the Grand Chokmah palace, there is a
Malkuth HQ, where all Malkuth troops are stationed, trained, and given mission
plus this is where Tartarus (LAND-SEA SHIP is kept) yup Malkuth Armada is the
most flexible means of Military Transport in this world as it can both move on
ground and float on water (the size is similar to battleships, but not even
close to Mother Ship). From the excerpt above, we can conclude that Malkuth
focuses on ground tunnel tactics for simple mobility of Tartarus let alone
their troops.
OH RIGHT ABOUT HQ! this place is designed to have a long and
complex hall due to its similar color/path patterns in order to confuse enemies
invading Malkuth (in case of emergency). There is also a war room where all
high-ranking military staffs of Malkuth Empire will discuss strategies and
situations on field supported with advanced mapping technologies, live video
feed (whoa nice technology advancement on media here!) then results of the
meeting will be forwarded to the Emperor. Sadly we can not see where Tartarus
is stored due to off-limit areas. Yep, that is all info I can provide.
