Alchemist Thor Travels Through the Demon King's Territory (2)

The history of the town of Ortia is short.

That is because it was built during the reign of the previous Demon King as a hub for river-based commerce.

The surrounding area is the Lake and Marshland Region, with a river outside the town.

There are waterways within the town as well, connecting to a pond where the merfolk live.

Air circulation is poor, and there is nowhere for the humidity to escape.

As a result, on hot days, the entire town inevitably becomes damp and muggy.

Merfolk live underwater, so they do not mind the humidity.

Lizardmen apparently find it more comfortable when their scales are moderately damp.
