Briefly
Located on Comino of Beldad, near the Karsin Ruins.
Nocturne is unique that it has a very relaxed attitude on crime. In fact, much of the townspeople happen to be knowledgeable in the art of pickpocketing. Theft is an everyday occurrence in Nocturne, for it is not quite illegal, and is in fact a sort of game to the townspeople--whoever has the most money, wins. The mafia gained control of the positions of power in Nocturne some time ago. Now, it simply makes sure that no one has any quarrels in town, while making the real profit with trade.
