Mintaka

Mintaka in BKO

Mintaka, the imperial capital, is the capital city of the Alfard Empire. Mintaka is possibly the most technologic city in Baten Kaitos world. The most notable characteristic of this city is that every building is made at least partly of shining metal, a symbol of technology and industrialization. The citizens of Mintaka are dependant on Machina, proud of themselves and their empire, and look down upon other nations.

Origins

In Baten Kaitos Origins, Mintaka is visited early in the game. Sagi has to escape from the city because he is being chased for killing Emperor Olgan, a thing he did not do. Here he meets Milly and Giacomo for the first time.

Eternal Wings

Mintaka in EWLO

In Baten Kaitos: Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean, Mintaka is visited by the group in their search of the last End Magnus. The first thing they do in the city is visiting Lyude´s house, but they are ambushed by Skeed and Vallye, so they have to leave Mintaka. During this time, they also witnessed a speech machine playing propaganda given by Emperor Geldoblame. Later in the game, Kalas and his friends save Mintaka from an attack of monsters from Cor Hydrae.
