A hot barren wasteland spread out in front of Alicia and the rest. "Bleh… Mother, it's hot!" Frey who was standing on top of Alicia's shoulder wiped the sweat from her brow.
"Yes, it is. That is one of the reasons why this is called the Barren Lands. Surprisingly enough though there are a lot of Demonic beasts here..." This was a point that Alicia did not understand. There were many groups of Demonic beasts roaming about but unlike the forests, there was really nothing else here besides a few plants that thrived in this hot dry weather.
"From what I have read the Barren Lands have many underground caves where rare floral and fauna grow. It is also a hot spot for many demonic beasts. I can only guess that there is something in the caves that give birth to the demonic beasts." Claire explained. She had read many books about the areas within the Kingdom. So she knew a lot about each area and what they held.
