The "evil" witch in the story had ridden her flying carpet for several days and had finally entered the borders of the Rose Kingdom.
Star Cave Village was located in a basin east of the Sunset Forest, which was vast itself and even bordered the Witch Forest.
It was said that the basin where Star Cave Village lay was created by a fallen star that crashed into the earth.
Though remote, Star Cave Village was rich in forest resources, and the land was fertile, but since one had to pass through the Sunset Forest to get there, few outsiders came, making it something of a secluded paradise.
The house in the story with the large garden and high walls was easily found by Mu Ying; those walls could rival the defenses of a small town.
Normal people couldn't possibly climb over them, but there were obvious signs of reinforcement and expansion; they must not have been so tall originally.
