Leonard's destination, the village, was located in a mountain basin. From various angles, it was just an ordinary mountain village in a valley.
The entire small village was mainly a pastoral one, surrounded by many small mountain pastures covered in lush green grass, where a good number of goats and cows could be found.
Perhaps due to the remoteness of the village, most of the villagers were middle-aged and elderly, with almost all the young people having gone to live in the neighboring big cities.
Rural hollowing is a global issue, especially in those countries where there is a significant income disparity between different regions.
Leonard and his companions had seen many hollowed-out villages like this one along their way, and this one was just an ordinary one among them.
