Prior to the Wadatsumi Incident, the Wadatsumi Research Facility was here, where research was conducted on the T-System and the Embryo. Prior to its acquisition by the Takamagahara Organization and the construction of the research facility, it was known as the Legendary Lands of Wadatsumi, a mountainous area sacred to the Amanohokosaka Clan.
==Information==
Since before recorded history, the Amanohokosaka Clan guarded this area, known as the Legendary Lands of Wadatsumi. It was here that the Azure Shrine Maiden sacrificed herself to seal a Black Beast within the Boundary using a cauldron. Since then the lands have been guarded by the Amanohokosaka Clan to prevent calamity, but over millennia, their mission has been lost to time. Eventually, the Magic Guild brought the clan to ruin, forcing them to sell the lands to the Takamagahara Organization.XBlaze Code: Embryo, Es & Hinata Route Episode 7
