Santaruz (Japanese: サンタルス Santaruz) was a duchy in eastern Lycia, bordered by Caelin to the north and west, Tania to the northeast, and Pherae to the southeast. It was ruled by Lord Helman until his death in 980.

Santaruz initially allied with Laus in a rebellion plot against Ostia in 980, spurred by the Black Fang under Ephidel. However, Lord Helman quickly got cold feet when Eliwood traveled to Santaruz to investigate his father's disappearance. Unwilling to lie to Eliwood about his father,[1] and furious at Ephidel for almost killing Eliwood,[2] Lord Helman turned against Ephidel, who lethally stabbed him.

Lord Helman's deathbed confession to Eliwood that he had been in cahoots with Lord Darin of Laus and the Black Fang, and his death soon after, effectively ended Santaruz's involvement in the rebellion.

Because Lord Helman died without an heir, the steward of Santaruz did not know what to do next; Hector told him to bury Helman and wait for the Lycian Council to convene.[3] It is not revealed what the Lycian Council decided regarding Santaruz's succession.
