🔹Ys IX: Monstrum Nox takes place in Balduq, northeast of Esteria in the Gllia region, under Romun control. Balduq is known as "the prison city" for its large prison facility inside the town and its architecture featuring high walls as a result of being built upon the fortified era. The city is an important nexus for transportation in the region, resulting in a wide range of inns, bars and trade centers. In more recent years, public facilities such as theaters and baths have started to be developed too.

🔹In more recent years, rumors of enigmatic individuals called "Monstrums" are said to have started appearing. The Monstrums are said to possess unique supernatural abilities, some of them seem to be helping the poor and helpless, while others are outlaws up to no good. This dichotomy has earned them both notoriety and ire from the many denizens of Balduq.

🔹Balduq Prison, located at the edge of the city, is supposedly the largest prison facility of the Romun Empire. Originally, it was a fortress built to protect the Romun border, but it has recently been repurposed as a prison facility. Featuring only one entrance through a drawbridge, and surrounded by steep rock walls and deep moats, it is said to be inescapable. The townsfolk do not hold the prison facility in high regard, as the facility is also used to detain critics of the empire and political prisoners.
