Definitely, it makes a lot of sense! Not to mention Russia itself does possess quite a slew of fairytales!

Maybe Baba Yaga might put in an appearance then if this is the case? She features in quite a few of their folk tales if I recall correctly.

That could be a fun way to tie into the Evil Witch...

Exactly.

I myself liked that all games are in Europe-in too much of media, plot's center is either in New york or Tokyo, and protagonists rarely move out from city through series. But it is just my opinion.

I hope it isn't Russia however. I would like whole game(s) with Slavic tales as main tale. And for Baba Yaga to be separate from Evil Witch, though not unrelated. EW could be BY's daughter or appretince.

Maybe Norway? It is snowy too.

Norway . . . I hadn't considered that one. Or Switzerland? Or maybe they'll just make it a kingdom that had slipped into another dimension, like they did with the Mist Kingdom. And I always thought Baba Yaga was mostly helpful anyway.

Granted she did have a nasty temper though . . .

Yes. Though wasn't Snow/Mountain Kingdom in Switzerland?

Yeah, well, you try living to ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo1% of her age and you will get nasty far.

Well even then she was helpful-people learnt about dangers of world at early age...

Lol, true enough.

I personally thought that the setting was somewhere in the Nordic region, specifically Scandinavia... although I could be wrong, my knowledge about the Nordic countries isn't the best and most accurate. But yeah, this is just my best educated guess.

It's been revealed now that the location, while based on the Nordic/Russian countries, is entirely fictional, but yh, had us all going right? ;)
