The entire area was pretty much deserted when Satoshi got back to his senses. When he started aimlessly making his way in one direction, he wasn't thinking about anything at all. There were no signs of intelligent life anywhere, not even beasts could be seen as he trudged his way through the vast arid plains.
"Sigh~ why are there no beasts here? And where did everyone go?" Satoshi scratched his head in slight frustration. But then again, he didn't resort to changing his directions since there was no use in doing so. He's got a whole ten kilometers ahead of him. If he walked to and fro the rest of the way, surely he'd meet one or two beasts, right?
Not really.
