Gyosha Hills

The Gyōsha Hills (業者山, Gyōshazan, Literally meaning: Merchant's Hills) is a very secluded sage region, and is not widely known as a legendary place. It's the land of owls and is home for large and small owls alike, and is where Kasumi made her contract with Kō and Kichi. Despite being hidden in the mountains of the Land of Hills, the Gyōsha Hills look very similar to a pond -- with giant cattails, lily pads, toadstools and umbrella-leaves. The entrance to this hidden place is deep within one of the underground caves in the Land of Hills. Their ultimate authority seems to be the Horned Owl Sage, with a few select elders beneath him.
