It may be a matter of dark sorcerers, foreign spies, traitorous neighbors, shape shifting monsters, or some other hidden evil. This evil may be a recent fear, or it may be an inherited peril they’ve always had to guard against. The danger itself may or may not exist, or if it exists it may not justify the steps being taken.

Points of Interest
Via-jejîke Dêtîkè's roads were poorly made when first laid.

The locals often repair the road by putting down wooden decking.
