Lokti could have also undergone this same letter-swap, or maybe not. Bragança (a district and city in Portugal) is used in *Rodrigo de Braganca* and that isn’t a corruption. So it’s possible that Lokti isn’t either.<br><br> Using Google Maps, I looked up *Lokti* and got: “Lokti is a rural locality in Moshkovsky District of Novosibirsk Oblast, *Russia*.” Considering Argo’s clothing and complexion, Russia is a pretty good place for Lokti to be located. <br><br> According to Google’s Ai Overview, which is: “supported by info from across the web and Google’s Knowledge Graph, a collection of info about people, places, and things”, A rural locality, is a geographic area outside of towns and cities, and is characterized by low population densities with small settlements. It’s also often associated with agricultural activities (i.e. farming, herding, et cetera). The middle of nowhere, essentially. [^2] <br><br> For the sake and simplicity of this project, I’ll go with Google’s answers here, that is to say, Lokti is in Russia and so is Argo Sendnar. <br><br> ## `1084` > During *Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord* <br><br> ## `1257` > During *Mount & Blade: Warband* [^1]: [[2-strings-(Warband)]] [^2]: https://www.google.com/search?q=what+is+a+rural+locality&rlz=1C1CHBF_enUS958US958&oq=what+is+a+rural+locality&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIICAEQABgWGB4yCAgCEAAYFhgeMggIAxAAGBYYHjIICAQQABgWGB4yCAgFEAAYFhgeMggIBhAAGBYYHjIICAcQABgWGB4yCAgIEAAYFhgeMggICRAAGBYYHtIBCDIwNzlqMGo3qAIAsAIA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
