So they're making an outpost to stop on the way while explorin further.

[not exactly a stronghold at first, but it's going to turn into it. isn't that how history happens? you stake a place and hold fast to it, then slowly things around it begin to develop as people get settled and decide to stay.

no one's gonna be out here dead in the forest, unless nara'a's planning on reviving whatever beasts end up getting caught in dabi's flames. granted, he hasn't set as much on fire here as he has in other areas, so that's lucky. he notes the lack of time spent on the second casting. like warming up a fire; once it's going, it's easier to produce more heat than when first kindling.]

And the people who can fly? No one's ever asked them to go scout ahead?

[granted, there are winged beasts out there as well fucking butterflies and dabi certainly hasn't volunteered his services to go aerial searching beyond the current borders. then again, since death isn't exactly permanent here, it's not a big deal...]

Likely each other. The Trench locales are simply easier food than other Beasts. And they congregate.



[ooc: would you like to fight a beast out here? i'll drive.]
