Aret is the second planet located in the Regulus system. Formerly an ocean planet, the Regulan star's intensifying brightness left naught but a sandy mesa. The arid land is riddled with huge saltlakes, giant skeletons, and a handful of ravines where the last remaining sea life survive.

Notable Landmarks[edit | edit source]

Orlandia[edit | edit source]

The City of Orlandia is a trade city in the southeastern corner of Aret, owned by Imperial Nova and led by _Longy. Employing a grandiose, futuristic-urban building style, Orlandia is built atop the Ikaria Sea, which is the largest artificial terraforming project on Horizon's End. It is one of eleven safezones on the server.
Orlandia was the primary operations center of the Horizon Federation during the Horizon Federation-RentDueYesterday War.
When visiting this city, players can interact with the bazaar, buy crates, and start daily commissions.

Anthill[edit | edit source]

The Anthill is a combination city and artistic project in the northwest of Aret, owned by Cortesia Del Mar and led by Consue. It is a large, intricate mega-build mixing Arabian and cyberpunk build themes, which serves as an indefinite artistic project for its participants. The Anthill is wrapped around a central trade tower, which is built out of several thousand aluminum blocks.
Formerly the capital of New Amcar, the Anthill has had collaboration from a diverse array of players on Horizon's End, receiving support and investment from _Longy, Sherbet_S, yodabird19, and more.

Auriko[edit | edit source]

Auriko was a city in Orovika in the northeast corner of Aret, led by GenBukkit. It employed a low-to-the-ground, spread-out building style.
Formerly a major industrial base, it is now maintained as a nation outpost of Orovika.

Yakuza[edit | edit source]

Yakuza was a major military and industrial base in 2023 and 2024, for the nations of Triad Corp, RentDueYesterday, and Vask Authority.
Frequently in conflict with the privateer powers of the server, Yakuza served as a refuge for many of the server's most profligate pirates in their respective primes. As a result, there were many PvP battles fought there during the Horizon Federation-RentDueYesterday War and the Ilios Alliance-Vask Authority War.
Following the ban of DearGhost, Yakuza was maintained via activity logging for a few months, before finally purging in December 2024. It is now claimed by Cortesia Del Mar.

dj Hole[edit | edit source]

The "dj Hole" is the colloquial term referring to the Republic of Carthage nation claim on Aret, in the "Magnisia Mountain" territory.
This territory is referred to as such due to the fact that almost every block in the claim, save for a thin layer at the surface, has been mined out, primarily by the player dj121739.
The existence of the dj Hole has caused consternation in the past from Imperial Nova, as the dj Hole directly borders the Ikaria Sea.
