Hidden well away from prying eyes, far inside of steep mountains, behind treacherous paths and passages, surrounded by countless accursed in every direction, there it was, a village inhabited by kalt, and not just a small population, the amount of people here was even superior to the frozen lake, and they all seemed, oddly peaceful.
Indeed, despite the sheer denseness of accursed Alkayne and his troops had needed to cut down, there were no signs of the people here suffering from issues due to the proximity, all seemed well-fed and content, joyful even, children were seen playing like normal.
There even was a field of ghost trees, clearly, they were thriving, these people who he had been assured did not exist were living their lives with tranquillity, all the while surrounded by cannibalistic, cursed brethren of theirs who for some reason did not attack them.
