Algetty is the formal name for the city of the [[Earthbound]] people, consisting of several dugouts and caves within the system known as [[Terra Cave]]. It was presumably established after the [[Ice Age]] came about from [[Lavos]], as the inner spaces of the planet would, although cool in temperature, be resistant to the raging weather outside. Quality of life is seemingly low, as the caves are the only refuge and have walls made of rock and dirt. [[Janus]] famously confirmed this by calling the establishment a filthy hovel; however, the Earthbound did briefly venture out of the caves at times, seen in the bystanders who watched the tsunami erupt from [[Mt. Woe]]'s descent into the ocean. In terms of leadership, Algetty is fostered by an elder, apparently selected by merit, age, and wisdom. During the events of [[12000 B.C.]], it was headed by a docile old man who welcomed visits for [[Schala]] and remained humble at all times to visitors and friends alike. A constant among all the Earthbound was fear of the Beast's Nest, an area adjacent to Algetty that housed fearsome beasts and led to Mt. Woe. This did not only constitute the troubles of Algetty's villagers, as it is stated that [[Dalton]] or other foremans of the [[Ocean Palace]] project selected slave labor -- these laborers were never seen again.
