The Village of Iruburu

Ilblu, or Iruburu, is a village in the 6th Layer inhabited entirely by narehate, created by the Three Sages. The force field does not exist in the village, and by extension, neither does the curse.

About
Narehate in Ilblu take the form of what it is they most desire, and are granted the village's protection. In exchange, they are bound to the village, and a force field prevents them from leaving.

The village itself seems to be somewhat sophisticated. It has restaurants, inns, and a system of currency.

The main industry in the village is trading based on the concept of "value." The inhabitants are constantly trading and bartering for things of equal or higher value. An item's value seems to be self determined by whoever is in possession of the item, as well as by the village itself based on the importance the item has to its owner. It is such an important concept, that when a customer damages an item before it is paid for, an event called "The Balancing" occurs. A noise rings out across the village, and one of the perpetrator's possessions of equal value is destroyed. The perpetrator may even be maimed in order to compensate for the defacement, if the value of the damaged item is high enough.

Humans are of especially high value, especially human children.

History
The only thing known about the village is that it was made by the three sages. Velo Eluka also had a role in its creation, but opposed its founding, claiming the village is cursed.
