Why haven't they encountered beasts along the way? From the foot of the mountain to the peak, there were no signs of activity, usually caused by wild beasts. There was nothing, no traces of battle. It was the opposite of the Forest of Death. A sign that something was very wrong about the Mountain. It was too hollow yet abundant resources, a good spot or an excellent habitat for the mutated beasts. Yet it was too hollow.

Sensing an impending doom or danger in advance was a good life-saving ability!
