Edal redirects Exorse to the Valley of Caves

The Valley of Caves is referenced as the destination for Exorse’s reassigned patrol, framing it as a region of strategic importance due to its association with Savage activity. While not physically present in this scene, its mention serves as a narrative catalyst, hinting at the impending confrontation between the Elders' enforcers and the Savages. The Valley of Caves symbolizes the Elders' paranoia and the fragility of their control, as it represents a potential breach in their defenses and a sanctuary for those resisting their rule. Its role in this event is purely functional, acting as the impetus for Exorse’s redirection and a foreshadowing of the Savages' vulnerability.

Before: A remote, rugged expanse outside the city, known for its caves and association with Savage activity. It is currently unpatrolled and potentially harboring fugitives.

After: Now marked as a priority patrol zone, with Exorse en route to investigate. The Valley of Caves remains a symbolic and tactical focal point, its caves likely sheltering Savages who are now at greater risk of discovery.
