Garoh

Garoh is a small village located in the south-central region of Osenia and west of the Balloo Mountain Range. It first appeared in the sequel, Golden Sun: The Lost Age. Well hidden from the naked eye, the village sits within the depths of a mountain, only accessible by climbing the stairs up and moving heavy tree bark that block the way.

Garoh is a village of werewolves, a race of humans with the ability to transform into an anthropomorphic wolf by looking at the sight of the full moon. Many years ago in their past, people viewed the werewolves as a cursed race and would burn them alive, this rite known as "purification". Because of this, the werewolves had no choice but to hide in the mountains and mask their curse, or as some people see it, a gift. Whenever travelers come across the mountain and find the werewolf village, the villagers pretend to act as if werewolves don't exist. For Felix and his party, when they arrived in Garoh during a full moon in, the villagers had to cloak themselves in order to prevent themselves from looking at the moon.

Connections between Garoh and Air's Rock
The werewolves of Garoh are Jupiter Adepts. They gain their power from a mountain called Air's Rock. Air's Rock is a sacred mountain that blesses the element of wind, Jupiter. As a tradition, when werewolves come of age and wisdom, they can choose to climb Air's Rock and learn the power of Reveal, an ability only learned by Jupiter Adepts. Master Maha, the chief of the village, learned Reveal himself but ended up losing his human form in the process. Being the source of the villager's access to wind psynergy causes the village to become very dependent on the mountain for psynergy resources. Without it, werewolves would not be Adepts.
