The Sergal presented in the artwork is wearing a Reono styled outfit, they are visiting the border where the Astna and Thekan meet in order to scout in advance for suitable materials. Due to their light set of clothing, it can be easily assumed Eltus people's village exist nearby.

The blue translucent trees presented actually display a curious nature, comparable to that of Earth-like synthetic resin (similar to plastic). These Talyxian ‘resin trees’ are prized as a valuable source for craft material, and feature a varied and wide range of types and modifiable attributes. Some types include glitter particles inside of them that shine by virtue of reflecting light. Some offer resistance to high temperatures and others have a high elasticity rate. Due to their beautiful appearance and high versatility, they are harvested by Eltus people and exported to Gold Ring, in order to be used in various ways such as material for accessories or tools.

Origin

These resins mainly originate from the surrounding Northern Talyxian biome forests. They were already known among Agudner craftsmen in the civilized areas such as Reono from old times. However, harvesting them from the more uncivilized areas proved difficult, as such they were not as common a material. In the Shigu monarchy period under General Rain’s rule, Northern people began to use resin trees in full swing as material for their weapons and so on. After the end of the war, they established processing methods and began to treat them as main exportable goods.

Use

As most resins would, applied heat causes them to become soft, sticky, and malleable. Once they begin to cool, they will harden to a firm state, perfect for binding blades and shafts of spears together, as well as other tools. In the past, this resin resource was overlooked, as the trees were not seen as a food source for the rustic Northern lifestyle. However, in years closer to the modern era, these trees have dropped drastically in number as continued high demands for the resin led to over-harvesting.

The time period is not determined, however, the location presented is located within the Northeastern lands of Planet Tal, where the border of Astna and Thekan meet. The Talyxian biome forest bordering the desert such as presented in the artwork is a very familiar sight to Northern people, scenery such as this can be seen throughout the whole of Northern habitable areas. Beyond the Talyxian forest line, the desert can be readily identified as a yellowish-white horizon.
