As May arrives, spring is gradually entering its final phase, and the temperature in Sparrow Wood Territory is warming up considerably.
It's not just Wheat Field Village that's changed; Sparrow Wood Castle has seen quite a transformation as well.
Especially the refugee camp outside the castle, visibly more emaciated than before.
Many of the villages surrounding Wheat Field Village have gradually become repopulated, leading numerous refugees to settle in those places.
Originally, they didn't have a specific destination, simply drifting with the migrating crowds, begging wherever they happened to be, working for whoever could provide a meal.

Many people found themselves recruited into the Green Forest Army during their flight, or, due to isolation, unfortunately became fodder for bandits and marauders.
As for Sparrow Wood Castle, although refugees still joined daily, the throngs of people outside the castle were no longer visible.
