Hot Springs Village is quite far from Vanilla City, requiring about five or six days of horseback riding to reach.
During the dark era of chaos, from Carano to Vanilla City, and further to Trileaf City, Ram's Horn Town, Lily Town..., this vast area did not belong to the Griffin Kingdom at that time, but to a nation called "Tomiri."
This human kingdom, named after the queen who founded it, existed for less than a hundred years. It was one of the dozens of kingdoms established by humans after the fall of the Magic Empire, and it had a rather unique history.
In the tumultuous two hundred years, the great Griffin Kingdom swallowed more than a dozen large and small human countries, forming the vast territory it has today. The Tomiri Kingdom was one of those conquered. Although Griffin Kingdom did annex these countries, many of the names of the cities and towns within them are still in use today.
