Now that they were in the outer lands, life was far more varied. There were still many barren spots but anywhere a Sacred Path lay open was vital and alive.
They encountered a few Immortals but they avoided the ship as the power of Ilyria and Lind was enough to scare the living daylights out of most beasts on principle.
They did find a few primitive demonic and human settlements but they had only barely started to recover strength and were thus at relative peace.
Lind did not choose to interfere as he had previously. The villages were self sufficient and not in dire need at the moment. Rasker had been nearly wiped out and the pregnant Julia had no support at all!
His ship could have carried them all away but they were years from anywhere!
Thus he had invested time and effort into helping them start anew. It also gave the Celestials a starting point. What they would all become was up to them now.
