Like we had expected, the journey over to the land that the Demon Clans ruled was a quick and boring affair, nothing happening as we rode from the center of the Empire over to the western expanse, where the majority of the Empire's breadbasket was located; smooth, rolling hills with an abundance of fertile land sprawled out on both sides of Sanctus Ignacia, but a lot of the more crop oriented Nobles and merchants occupied the west.
In the east, the land was just a bit harsher and less forgiving, so while food was still grown in abundance to feed the various territories built atop its rocky expanse, there was a slim amount of excess that was shipped out and sold to other parts of the Empire.
