Arikva Conglomerate

The Arikva Conglomerate is a group of Arikvan s who were founded during the 1st Era. The Arikva Conglomerate is one of Kerotire's largest factions, as the current population of them is 1,500,000. The Arikva Conglomerate has been the most exploited faction, as during the 1st Era the Arikva Slavery took place.

1st Era
The Arikva Conglomerate and, by extension, the Arikvan s, had been very lucky, as the majority of Kerotire had been made up of grassland and deserts, leading all other factions to the Greater Lakes region. The Arikva Conglomerate lived in the Arikva Desert, as they did not require water.

During the war of the 1st Era, the Arikva Conglomerate had wished to stay neutral, as they knew the Saracoph Lane was not their land and they had not wished to claim it. However, due to circumstances out of their control, the Arikva Conglomerate ended up as a major player during the 1st and 2nd battle.

1st Battle
During the 1st Battle, the Ragna Legion led the Grok Empire deep into the Arikva Desert, leaving them stranded with very little water. The Arikva Conglomerate decided to assist the Grok Empire in escaping the desert by handing out water and horses. However, the Grok Empire ended up enslaving the majority of Arikvan people, including the entirety of the Arikva Conglomerate.

2nd Battle
During the 2nd battle, the Arikva Conglomerate had a large amount of Dust Bomb s smuggled into their cells, with approximately 17 more being planted on the supports of the Grok Grand Tower, the building they had been kept in. At the climax of the 2nd Battle, all the Dust Bomb s went off, collapsing the Grok Grand Tower and near wiping out the Vai race. After this, the Grok Empire officially disbanded, leading to hundreds of Vai refugees being accepted into the Arikva Conglomerate.
