In a town near the Death Mountain, all the traces of the former liveliness disappeared in a matter of days.
The rumors about the Death God being in the Death Mountain were enough to provoke a massive migration from all the nearby towns.
Those towns endured the presence of the criminals as the area was famous for its black market and the criminals were always quite eager to enter that business.
Moreover, without the criminals, the business in the area started to diminish, in the previous years, so even without the Death God it was just a matter of time to flee, and most were already making preparations from before.
Although most people had fled, there were still living there those who couldn't leave because they didn't have enough resources to live in another place or because they have family members that couldn't travel due to being too old or sick.
