Edialni

Edialni is a fictional location featured in the video game "Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Future" and its remake "Dragon Quest VII: Rediscovered". It appears as an island continent in the past, which becomes submerged and fragmented in the present day. The player encounters Edialni in both its past and present forms as they travel through time to restore the world.

In the past, Edialni is depicted as a thriving land with various settlements and natural landscapes. It plays a significant role in the game's narrative, often serving as a hub for quests and a place where key events unfold. The inhabitants of Edialni in the past are generally depicted as living peaceful lives before the mysterious cataclysm that causes its submersion.

As the player progresses through the game, they discover that a magical event caused the landmass of Edialni to break apart and sink beneath the ocean. In the present, the player revisits the areas where Edialni once existed, finding only scattered islands, underwater ruins, and remnants of its former civilization. Restoring Edialni is a major objective, involving the player gathering fragments of the lost continent and using them to piece the world back together. The challenges in the present-day Edialni often involve navigating treacherous waters, exploring underwater dungeons, and dealing with the monsters that have taken over the submerged ruins. The restoration of Edialni is a crucial step in overcoming the game's primary antagonist and saving the world from its fractured state.
