*[[wikipedia: Schoenus|Schoinos]] means rope, and the plural form is Schoinoi. The region in Ptolemaic Egypt named Triakontaschoinos, meaning 30 ropes, is the basis for the name, and hence the usage of the singular form schoinos at the ending rather than schoinoi. This is because numbers above 3 does not have inflections.

'Urban Legends has it that Kallisto, who was ever rumored to be a psychic in the first place ever since Holly Alto's insanity, became so wacky that Kallisto's whims alone had spawned this landmass. This rather strange setting is now the Capital world of Kallisto's nascent Church of Alexandros.'

Hekatonschoinos is the capital world of the Church of Alexandros. It is currently underdeveloped, and most residents are either the followers of the new religion or immigrants seeking work.

Hekatonschoinos, despite the relative underdevelopment and underpopulation, has scores of opportunities for work, featuring infrastructures for work in all fields of careers, as well as multiple shops and merchant work. The major force in the neighborhood is the supposed founders and certain developers of the new city, the Union of the Insane, and despite its split to maintain their hold over their old domain at Sunset Valley, Union of the Insane remains the most powerful household in Hekatonschoinos. Most houses available are largely middle class dwellings, and land is plentiful in the region.
