There once was a saying that "every ship is born in Rokard."

It is said that Rokard Shipyard used to be at the northwest of the Rusty Anchor Coast. This place has turned into an accursed desolate swamp now, but it once was a busy place filled with ship crafting masters.

The shipyard was famous for high quality ships made by very skilled craftsmen. But suddenly, the red fog and tidal waves swept out the shipyard. The shipyard was never restored, and survivors left. The water level constantly went down, and eventually, the coast turned into a swamp.

Now the Rusty Anchor Coast is a graveyard for ships, filled with remains of bygone ships. You won't even find a single piece of the shipyard that once was the best facility in the world.

I felt even deeper remorse when I read the "Royal Rokard" article from the Solisium Encyclopedia page 327, line 5:

"The Royal Rokard was the masterpiece that put both the magic and science together; this ship will provide you the most magical experience."

The ship was never completed due to the red fog, though. I searched the Rusty Anchor Coast ruin to find any remains of the Royal Rokard, but I couldn't find this particular ship among the piled up wreckage. I could feel the passion of the craftsmen of the past from the wreckage, though. Now mark my words; I will finish the Royal Rokard, the dream ship that was never delivered, someday.
