Sword x Staff Map: Kanstein’s Kingdoms and Regions

The world (official lore posts, May 14, 2026)

“Surface civilizations now remain only on the four continents — Verdantglade, Cinder Ridge, Aqualis, and Loong Haven. Legends speak of a fifth land, Aethyris, whose brilliance once eclipsed all others.” Boltray’s marketing also calls them “five distinct kingdoms”; the store map shows Aethyris as a floating region. Your journey begins on Originisle (the tutorial isle; the mailbox unlocks after you 100% it) and your Home is the Floating Island, “believed to be the Goddess’s former abode.”

Kingdom	Official flavour	Hub / people	Hieromon
Verdantglade	Dense woods where the Auroradrasil takes root; “green upon green upon green”	Drasilgard at the tree’s foot; Dryason; Akane, Reina, Qin, Killian, Narss, Hermes, Molly	Storm Griffin

Level and season gates (community)

Cinder Ridge opens with the second-class advancement at Lv. 44; the Grand Arena and Commercium sit here from Lv. 40.
Aqualis is where you can change class (not lossless).
Loong Haven is the Season 2 kingdom: gems, Gem Tower, Panda pet and new dungeons; community guides call its unlock the point where F2P should follow the full Grand Treasure Hunt cadence.
Area unlock items seen in Season 2: Gateway Keys, Water Mines, Magic Drills, Withering Potions.
Nimbusville (needed for Mythic Fantomon evolution) and Monolith Ruins appear in player searches as late-game locations; Boltray has not described them in English posts — unconfirmed as of Aug 23, 2026.

Exploration is the economy

Reach 100% in a sector to activate its Goddess Statue (Blessing Level → Cart caps and bed EXP). Buy exploration items from Kingdom Shops for blocked sectors. Boltray’s tips: tap everything at Home (blossoms, birds, moles), dodge biting chests by tapping nearby ground, and interact once a day with the Statue of Witch or Statue of the Brave for a windfall — or a lightning bolt.

World systems from the lore

Portals (stone archways that teleport once awakened), Puzzle Ruins, the Voyage Obelisk (coordinates between kingdoms), Chaos (the invading force behind Chaos Invasion), and the Goddess whose statues stand everywhere.
