Sarady (サラディ, Saradi) is a village which appears in Suikoden. It is a tiny, isolated village located beyond Mt. Tigerwolf, to the north-west of the Imperial capital of Gregminster.

Information

Sarady, located north, beyond Mt. Tigerwolf in the Banner Mountains, is far removed from the other bustling cities of the Arus region, but it nonetheless draws a small number of visitors due to several rare plants and water runes which come from the region.

During the War of Succession, Sarady received a large number of refugees from both Gregminster and Lenankamp as the village was too isolated to be harassed much by the forces of Geil Runger. When Geil's forces kidnapped a young McDohl, he was taken to Sarady to be handed over the bandits of Mt. Tigerwolf.

Due to being such an isolated village, news rarely reaches the area and much of what does find its way to Sarady is so distorted as to be considered rumor. Odessa Silverberg used the village as a meeting place during the Toran Liberation Army in order to pass on plans for Fire Spear to an intermediary who would bring them to their destination.

Music

Rock Rockland

Sarady's theme in Suikoden is the song "Rock Rockland", which is song 15 on disc 1 of the Genso Suikoden Original Game Soundtrack. It shares this theme with both the towns of Rockland and Lenankamp. All three are located in the region of Arus.

The Genso Suikoden Original Game Soundtrack notes that Rock Rockland is the theme for Rockland and Lenankamp, but not for Sarady, perhaps underscoring the village's isolation and unimportance.
