Meanwhile, outside Rodel City, within two small hills as indicated on the map, Howard had arrived near the habitat of the wolfrats.
The taller hill was named "Taso," and the shorter "Tami."
Currently, Howard was in a valley on Taso.
Though referred to as "small hills," they were not short by any measure, with relative elevations reaching hundreds of meters and extending for several kilometers, making them more akin to a series of elevated lands than mere hills.
The vegetation here was lush, unlike the predominantly herbaceous plants found in the plains, with many tall trees scattered throughout.
Wolfrats, a social and predatory species, had little sense of territory, inhabiting valleys that also served as the overlapping territories of several low-tier spellbeasts.
Despite their individual weakness, through unity, cunning, and recklessness, the wolfrats carved out a niche for themselves in a fertile valley, thriving and multiplying.
