Agnea's home town, Cropdale is a pleasant little village in the northeast of the Leaflands. Aside from serving as Agnea's starting point, Cropdale only pops into the plot as the setting for Ochette and Castti's joint chapters. You probably won't spend a whole lot of time here once Agnea has moved into the wider world.
Cropdale is located on a crossroads in the Leaflands, along the route that joins the two halves of the Wildlands. If you start your game here you'll have easy access to Partitio in Oresrush, and Hikari is a short trip south, in Ryu.
