There are other units of currency, including Hexas ( hexagon shaped coins that have a 10:1 exchange rate with the tria), Octas ( octagon shaped 50:1 exchange rate) and Circles (circular gold coins 250:1 exchange rate). Magically forging the crystals produces a perfect triangle with rounded-off edges. The crystal mineral can easily be found in the mines and is transparent or light green in color. The main currency is the Tria, triangle-shaped coins made of sturdy alloys, metals, or crystals. Ochtarchs generally remain in power for life. At the beginning of every year there is a meeting of all Octarchs and Vigesimi that lasts for several months, where they address issues pertinent to Yliakum's inhabitants. Under them are lesser representatives, twenty in each level (160 total), called "Vigesimi". Yliakum is governed by eight "Octarchs", one representing each level of Yliakum.

The races of Yliakum were created by Talad and Laanx, the two chief deities of the setting. Yliakum's history is classified into five different epochs. Outside of Yliakum are the Stone Labyrinths and through these the player can access even more areas, like the cave in which the stalactite hangs.
