Lacroa

East-most town in western region of Lautrec. In vicinity of Toulouse border. After crossing border, Clare calls it "the nearest town in the west".

History
"Lacroa" was first mentioned by Rimuto.

Called "Lacroix" in VIZ translation.

Locale where Clare, Cynthia and Yuma accidentally run across a search party from the Organization, knocks them unconscious, then kills an Awakened Being, which tries to escape as a Flying Yoma-like creature.

But in the end, the three are discovered by Rubel.

Egged on by Rubel's story of Rafaela and Renee being captured by Riful, the three ex-Claymores journey to Riful's Second Hideout, north of Ticheri.

Behind the Scenes

 * "Lacroix," French for "the cross," may refer to the cross-shaped geological formation Clare, Cynthia and Yuma see before traveling over the Toulouse border.
 * "Lacroix" may also allude to French Romantic painter, Eugène Delacroix (1798–1863); considering the possibility that the names of the cities "Toulouse" and "Lautrec" may derive from the French Post-Impressionist painter Henri de Toulouse-Lautrex (1864-1901).
 * The VIZ edition of Scene 83 has Rubel incorrectly referring the town as "Rabona."
 * "ラクロア" is transliterated as "Lacroix," pronounced in Japanese as "lac-er-roy."
