"I never expected the northernmost part of your country to still be surrounded by mountains. The scenery looks pretty good." Uchiha Hikaru praised them, sensing that this place seemed rather different from what he had imagined.
The northernmost region was supposed to be where the poor lived, which meant the environment should not have been very good. In Uchiha Hikaru's impression, it ought to have been filthy, chaotic, and terrible, without anyone needing to influence it.
