Description
Unrelenting dust storms and a severe climate make for a harsh environment that is inhabited by few. The Yagudo stronghold, Castle Oztroja, is located within these highlands and as always serves as the heart of the Yagudo Theomilitary. During the Crystal War, this area was fortified with many watchtowers set up by the beastmen as they warred with the Allied Nations.
