About 10 years ago there was this anime running on Norwegian TV about a girl living in a world set in the time period before people learned to build planes. She was experimenting with this and got a lot of trouble from her parents for it (being 8 yo or something). Her brother went on an expedition to the eastern part of the world to look for a mystical substance and never returned. Years later she went out on a journey to find him and met a bunch of people on the way. When she found him he was a chief scientist in this utopian society. They had giant flying machines, kinda looking like trains that ran of a blue crystall they were mining.
Can anyone remember this show or the name of the substance?
