Ronoa

Marked by the Hours takes place in the citystate of Ronoa, and when I talk about Ronoa, I'm referring to the in-world universe at large.

Flora

The tropical climate and fertile soil means Ronoa is home to a number of plants and their associated fruit.

Fauna

Ronoa is often called The Feathered City, due to the millions of birds that call the city home. There are thousands of different birds, both big and small, zooming through the air at all hours of the day. The Ronoan Aviarium keeps records of all identified species of birds.

The waters of Builder’s Bay teem with fish, all of which are catalogued by the Aqualogical Institute of Ronoa.
