A place mentioned in a story is not automatically a zone you can visit. This guide separates the settings described for the adventure from ancient cities, royal titles and places used in the heroes’ legends. It covers the named locations in the official material reviewed on 5 September 2026 without turning them into an invented world map.
From Seaglass Harbor to the Garden of the Gods: where each name comes from, and which names describe the current adventure or its historical lore.
01Auroria, Seaglass Harbor and Diamond Shores
The developer diary of 10 October 2024 sets the story around the discovery of Auroria, roughly fifty years after the first ArcheAge. The official post of 15 January 2025 calls Auroria the continent where the adventure unfolds. Neither statement establishes that every place remembered from the earlier game returns.
Seaglass Harbor is presented on 16 January 2025 as a base for exploration and the seat of the Settlers’ Council, with plazas and eastern and western docks. The Bluesalt Brotherhood post of 19 February places it in Diamond Shores. The studio also describes NPC shops and ships in an October 2024 development post; this supports its role as an inhabited settlement.
02Serpens’ Domain, Mailgrove and the armory
The post of 9 July 2025 describes Serpens’ Domain as a ruined former haven of the ancient city Mailgrove, now held by the Dobavion Dreadbreath Tribe. Its references to a slumbering god and sacrifices are presented as whispers in the story. The post does not classify the place as an instanced dungeon or demonstrate that Mailgrove survives as an accessible city.
Whalebone Graveyard is named in the Thorned Halberd post of 12 December 2024 as the location of the armory guarded by Axas. This is a named connection between a place, an opponent and a weapon. It is not a route, coordinate or list of entry requirements.
03Airship Workshop and Whalesong Shores
On 21 January 2025 the studio introduced the Airship Workshop as a site made off-limits after a deadly accident, while also describing a busy harbor in Whalesong Shores. The tension between the closed workshop and the lively harbor is part of the mystery. It does not establish an airship-crafting activity, and the post supplies no travel instructions.
The story of ArcheAge Chronicles takes place during the discovery of Auroria, roughly 50 years after the events of the original. … placing the hopes and struggles of Auroria's settlers at the forefront of a brave new world.

04South Aust, Hinon and Epherium: read the relationship carefully
South Aust is where the people in Duskshade’s origin story died looking for gold (18 June 2025). Hinon appears in the royal title of Helkam, whose story describes confinement in a coastal cave (2 July 2025). Neither reference provides a present-day spawn location or defines the geography of an accessible region.
Epherium is the setting of the Greatest Gladiator’s legend, published on 26 November 2024. The story concerns a forgotten warrior and the equipment he left behind. It does not announce a playable arena.
05Libraries, divine journeys and a forest comparison
The Antiquary Society’s introduction of 26 March 2025 says it seeks to rebuild the legendary Delphinad Library. Rebuilding is the group’s goal; it is not proof of an open library dungeon. A separate Shadowhawk Syndicate post of 5 June refers to Delphinad’s back alleys as the origin of an earlier group’s name.
The Warrior and Ranger profiles of July 2026 place Jin Evernight and Tahyang Kahlzit in the Garden of the Gods during their stories of divine power. Those two accounts make it important to the class legends, without announcing a playable destination in Chronicles.
Gweonid Forest appears in the elf-training post of 7 November 2024 as a poetic comparison for the elf’s growing magic. It is a lore reference, not evidence that the forest has been shown or announced as a zone in this game.
06An old name to keep separate: Singing Land
The Gatekeeper Harrod post of 5 December 2024 explicitly places the statue in the Singing Land of ArcheAge, then announces his weapon’s return in Chronicles. The returning object is established; the return of the place is not.
07What remains unknown — checked 5 September 2026
The reviewed sources do not provide a complete world map, zone list, level ranges or travel times. They do show individual travel elements: a horse in the animation post of 31 October 2024 and a glider in the combat caption of 27 August 2026. Neither establishes unrestricted flight or a complete travel system. Use the source’s relationship to understand a place; do not turn a familiar name into a route or farming location.
