Lutin Creux

"Welcome to Lutin Creux - the lost paradise"

- Peri Winter

Summary:
Lutin Creux is a small island in the middle of the ocean between Vacuo and Mistral, it's also the hometown of Crystal Nelde and Peri Winter. The island is peaceful because there aren't any Grimm on the island, and it has a lot of large Dust crystals scattered everywhere on the island.

The island is surrounded by a ring of large, mushroom-shaped rock islands, and beyond it are deadly tides and whirlpool, making it impossible for ships to enter the ring. However, the inner sea is very peaceful.

In the middle of the island is a large tree, over 500 feet in height and can be seen from anywhere in the island. However, there is no possible way to reach it because it is blocked by Dust crystals.

History:
Ever since the birth of aircraft, the area around Lutin Creux has been a place of myth. A large area of sea (around 2,000 miles in radius) beyond the ring of rocks is home to many hurricanes and vortexs, making it very hard for airships to nagivate through the area.

Many airships has tried to make a straight flight between Vacuo and Mistral, only to be failed and crashed to the bottom of the ocean - no matter how the weathers were predicted to be favorable. However, there has been a couple of airship managed to make it to Lutin - only to be stopped there and never take off.

Nowaday, airships are advised to avoid the area, so generally there aren't a lot of them passing by and the number of accidents has been reduced greatly and eventually stopped altogether. The last airship that was reported to pass through this area and crashed was 17 years ago...
