Creating Shelter
Everwood Palace.
As Aksai approached his home, he noticed a large group of citizens waiting outside the palace gates.
Everwood Palace, situated far from the city square in a suburban zone near the city walls, remained unaffected by the tree devil calamity. At least for the time being.
The threat posed by the tree devils did not extend this far from the central city square, and the corrupted druid remained rooted beneath the demon tree, refusing to budge.
Thus, Everwood Palace stood as one of the few safe zones available to the citizens of Serenity Peak.
Most of these individuals originally resided closest to the central city square, an opulent and hence expensive area, before the tree devil calamity struck.
These wealthy mortals and well-established martial families would never have considered relocating to the suburbs if not for the fact that their neighborhoods had become danger zones due to the presence of ever-roaming tree devils.
