Ys Memoire Revelations in Celceta: seen a few memories mentioning "Promalock". Is this supposed to be an off-scene adventure/event Adol experienced? Because I don't remember such a place in Ys I & II and Ys X Nordics.

It's mentioned in the backstory as the place that Adol sailed from to reach Esteria and has been referenced as such (and visible on maps) literally since the first release of Ys I. It showed up onscreen in the old OVA adaptation of the game and also in both of the older versions of Ys IV that Falcom drew upon in creating Memories of Celceta.

Adol also mentions that he came from Promalock in the beginning of Ys I (as we have it today) but it's easy to forget that line.
