Basal
A term of confusion, not a place on the map.
Basal is not a recognized region or geographical location within the official Arknights canon as widely documented in current records. While the term may occasionally surface in community discussions, it does not correspond to any established nation, territory, or major city on the map of Terra. It is often confused with other terms such as 'Basalt,' which refers to a common enemy type and material derived from Originium-infused rock.

Lore & Background
Some players may also conflate this term with the Basilisk monsters, which originate from specific border zones between Reunion and Victoria. However, these creatures inhabit ruins and underground complexes rather than a region named Basal. Rhodes Island's database does not list any coordinates or political entities under this designation.
In Their Own Story
The operator checked the map again, tracing the lines of Leithanien and the coast of Aegir. 'Basal,' they muttered, tapping the blank space between known territories. There was nothing there but sea and silence. It was a name whispered in taverns about lost lands, but on Rhodes Island's screens, it remained an empty coordinate—a ghost in the data.
Reader's Guide
Since Basal is not a canon region, no political status or cultural traits can be accurately described. Travelers should note that confusion with 'Basalt' terrain may occur. These are hazardous zones rich in Originium deposits found within existing nations like Victoria or Reunion. For accurate navigation, operators should consult the official Terra map covering recognized states such as Lungmen, Kazdel, and Urey.
