The Northern Region areas might just look dangerous because of the creatures, but the biggest danger wasn't the creatures.
The biggest danger was people.
No matter what race, they were all far more dangerous than any other creature in existence.
Wars and hidden schemes were constant because many groups wanted to exert their influence over larger territories to gain wealth.
Thus, many groups fell and others rose overnight.
The Northern Region had a balance of who ruled the twelve Provinces, the groups might fall, but the sponsors were the same. This was just to show how powerful these sponsors are.
All of them were great shots from the East and West regions. Since the Central, North, and South were inhospitable and extremely dangerous places because of the high-level creatures.
Only the strongest dared to set foot in these places. Mainly the central area of the planet. Also known as the Violet World.
