Race Lore – The Popori
Good Evening, TERA Fans! Tonight, we're concluding our Race Lore translations with the history of the Popori!
This article was originally translated by Meiellink into Japanese, then by Locien from Japanese to English and edited by me! Enjoy!
The History of the Popori
Popori is actually a general term for various intelligent races with different animal-like features that live in the Popori Kingdom. They are composed of the upper class matriarchal leaders, Eluren, as well as well as the Porian, Merunim, Uru and Perunim common class races with their distinctive animal-like looks.
For several thousands of years the Popori have lived by the Lake of the Moon peacefully, developing a strong love for the harmony and the spontaneity of nature. They are known in Arborea as the most peaceful and stable lineage in existence. They became the first race to join the Valkion Coalition after a proposal from the Humans.
Often overlooked as a potential formidable enemy by the other races, the Popori have proudly sworn that they won't lose to their opponents, regardless of their small stature. Despite their looks, Popori are actually quite strong and very self-confident.
The Lake of the Moon
The Lake of the Moon, situated on the south-east side of the Arun Continent, is the origin of all the Popori races. This place is known as the holy resting place of the Popori's creator, Ely. The lake is surrounded by a mystical, beautiful and fantasy-like environment, engulfed in a forest thought to be the resting place of the Popori's guardian god, Selen. According to a local legend, the Lake of the Moon is a place where the magical powers of ancient gods live on today and is constantly protecting Pora Elinu, the capital of the Popori Kingdom.
Queen Rerin
Since the dawn of time the Popori civilization has been primarily ruled by the powerful female Eluren race. Queen Rerin is, among the average Popori, a beloved and almost legendary queen. Rerin stepped up during a crisis, the Teba Invasion. She led the Popori kingdom to victory and then formed a pact with the fairies that helped the Popori enter the most prosperous era of their civilization.
Unfortunately, at the end of the war with the Teba race, she tragically died. However the Popori to this day always speak of her with deep adoration.
