Medai Village

Removed redundant H1 heading from article body
Medai Village is one of the smaller named locations on Floor 1 of Aincrad in Echoes of Aincrad.
Coverage of Echoes of Aincrad so far has not formally detailed Medai Village as an in-game location. The named partner roster, the combat systems, the editions, and several other Floor 1 settlements have all been described in announcement material and previews, but Medai itself has not been highlighted in any first-party reveal at the time of writing. That makes the village's role in the game uncertain. It may be a fully visitable settlement, a passing reference in dialogue or signage, or simply absent from the game's playable territory. This article therefore treats Medai as a Floor 1 reference point rather than as a fully described in-game stop, and any backstory framing below is presented as such rather than as confirmed in-game canon.
The first floor of Aincrad is the opening playable region in the game. The Town of Beginnings is the floor's hub, and other smaller named Floor 1 settlements that have appeared in coverage include Tolbana and Horunka Village. Medai's place in the established lore puts it in the same general category as those smaller settlements: a named non-hub location somewhere on the first floor, distinct from the central town that the player starts in.
To avoid filling this page with fabricated detail, the points below set out exactly what is not yet established for Medai Village in this game.
Not confirmed: Whether Medai Village is a visitable in-game location at launch.
Not confirmed: Any specific NPCs tied to the village, including shopkeepers, quest givers, or named residents.
Not confirmed: Any specific shop or smithy services available in the village.
Not confirmed: Any specific quests or side content that begins, progresses, or resolves at Medai.
Not confirmed: Whether Medai gates side content the way some smaller Floor 1 settlements may, or whether it is purely an optional stop.
In the broader source material that Echoes of Aincrad draws on, Medai Village is described as a smaller settlement on the first floor of Aincrad, positioned east of the Town of Beginnings and reached through a stretch of mountainous terrain. That backstory framing is presented here only as context: this article does not assume the in-game Medai reproduces that exact layout, economy, or population. The game has the freedom to shape Medai differently, and any specific in-game detail will be added to this page only after a primary source confirms it.
Floor 1 Town of Beginnings covers the first playable floor and its central hub city.
Town of Beginnings is the Floor 1 hub city, the structural counterpart to Medai's smaller-settlement role in canon lore.
Tolbana is another named Floor 1 settlement, positioned closer to the Floor 1 Labyrinth.
Horunka Village is a separate small Floor 1 settlement and the closest structural comparison point for Medai.
Urbus is the hub city of the second playable floor, included for navigation across the game's two floors.
Aincrad describes the floating castle as a whole and the role each floor plays within it.
