The trains were powered by coal, but the cars required being attached to a mage and were quite rare. I think Caits means, like, lacrima powered cars.

@Zarkun

So we're more or less in the magical version of the industrial era?

Phoenix Wing (A Fairy Tail RP-Always Open, Open)

And we might finally introduce magic powered trains and vehicles... interesting

@Caits

Wasn't that already a thing 100 years ago in the manga?

You're horrible, you know that?

@Zarkun

I saw the opportunity and I grabbed it. I have no regrets.

<Snipped quote by hatakekuro>

And if I was? XD

@Zarkun

You want to make it a three way?

@Expolar
Yeah, I definitely am.

Mirror, Mirror on the wall, why must you show me what an Idiot I was once?

@Crimson Raven

Hey, at least it's once. There are many people who are still idiots.

@Expolar
By the way, were you asking because you wanted to do something with Caelum?

Spar Joshua @hatakekuro

@Joshua Tamashii

Sure, I could do that.

<Snipped quote by Aerandir>

There's a familiar face! Caits' last post has to do with plot, but I'm not sure she's laid out the whole thing just yet. Basically the first Grand Magic Games in one hundred years ended two months prior to where we are now with no clear winner. We've got a couple of people waiting to join a guild, of which the current main light guilds are Dragon Fang, Phoenix Wing, and @Lugubrious's Frenzy Plant, though he hasn't posted recently.

I hear sparring sessions are incredibly therapeutic XD

@Zarkun

Are you asking for a spar too? xD

<Snipped quote by hatakekuro>

Thanks for the incredible amount detail hata. I was floating some ideas of mind and thought about Caelum and its current state. But since you already added some background to the country from your posts, I thought it would be better to ask you. So thanks again for great info on Caelum. I'll probably ask you other things in future from these floating ideas.

And about his therapy session, is is about his "female" and "anger" issues lol.

@Expolar

No problem. At some point, Nolan is going to have to go back to Caleum again.

Anger, being around women, and his ptsd. Let's face it, he's got a lot of issues. lol

@hatakekuro
I was thinking about something and wanted to ask you since you described parts of the area already. The country that Nolan is from, Caelum, how would you describe the place? From what I remember from Nolan's travel and experience there, it seems like a very chaotic place.

@Expolar

It's an extremely dangerous place to live in. Unlike Fiore, it has an oligarchy rather than a monarchy and the social casts are very well defined. If you are wealthy you'll live in a secluded community away from the poverty and live a life of luxury as well as getting away with extremely illegal things, such as slavery.

Outside of the decadence and wealth, the poverty and crime is rampant. Criminal organizations make their profit from exploiting the poor and the weak and there are militias that are far too few in between created by people who care to make Caleum a better place. Most of the militias create cults of personality to manipulate people to join them and fight against the corrupt government for their own ends.

Nolan was a victim of this system when he was washed up on the shores of Caleum after his ship was destroyed in the storm and sold into slavery as a child sex slave, which was already hinted at during the time when Ariel and him were trapped in the painting.

The country's cultural influence is more akin to the Roman Empire, but before that it used to be a country with a heavy Indian influence as seen in Nolan's God Slaying magic, such as his secret techniques having Black Dharma in the title, his God Force form has a golden Dharma Wheel hovering on his back, the lotus symbol that shows that he is the champion of The Goddess, and even The Goddess' true name, which I will not reveal.

I will reveal some of the horrors that Nolan had seen during his travel through the country to escape to Fiore, perhaps in a potential therapy session for him.
