World
From Elona Wiki
The world in which Elona takes place is known as Ilva, which is currently in its eleventh era, known as Sierre Terre. The game itself takes place in the region of North Tyris, which is ruled from Palmia by King Xabi and Queen Stersha. The region was also the location of an ancient civilization known as Nefia.
Other regions of the world include Yerles, Eulderna, Zanan and the Vindale Forest. Yerles and Eulderna are at war, with North Tyris often being caught in the crossfire. Zanan and the Elea of Vindale Forest are also at war, with rumors saying that the Vindale Forests are the source of the Etherwind.

[edit] Random dungeons
Random dungeons are the dungeons, forts, towers and forests that are randomly generated and destroyed throughout the game world; they are easily identifiable by their generic sprites and names.
| Prefix | Danger |
|---|---|
| Beginner's/Safe | 1-4 |
| Adventurer's/Exciting | 5-9 |
| Servant's/Dangerous | 10-14 |
| Shadow/Fearful | 15-19 |
| King's/Chaotic | 20+ |
When you visit a random dungeon and leave without reaching the final level, the dungeon will be marked by a torch. If you reached the final level and defeated or failed to defeat the dungeon master, the dungeon will be marked with a crown.
[edit] Lord of the dungeon
On the last level of random dungeons, you will encounter the lord of the dungeon, or dungeon master, who is tougher version of a regular creature (i.e. a <creature>). The game picks the dungeon master much like any other creature, so you will usually encounter something appropriate to the level, but you could also encounter something that is rather easy or difficult to kill.
Killing the dungeon master is treated as a quest and, once you enter the final level, you only have one chance the kill the creature. If you are killed or leave the level, you will fail the quest, the lord will be removed and the dungeon will be marked as cleared.
When the lord is killed, regardless of whether you killed it or something else, you will be awarded some fame, your adventurer rank will increase and a scroll of return, chest and some items will spawn at your feet. Like most <creatures>, the dungeon master will usually drop a corpse, card and figurine.
