Kinya Province is a rough but verdant area flanked by mountains to the east and the sea to the west. A large unnamed settlement of Canthans lies near the center, south of Tomaat Pass. The Angchu village of Aerie is located here, as is a small camp of the Crimson Skull gang. Roving bands of Kappa and Naga make travel dangerous.

Notes

• These quests affect the spawns in this area:
  • Dual Strike
  • Lo Sha's Gift
  • The Yeti Hunt
  • Warning the Tengu
• These festival quests will also affect the spawns in this area:
  • A Strange Request
  • The Knights Who Say Nian
  • The Rampaging Yetis
• Complete exploration of this area contributes approximately 3.1% to the Canthan Cartographer title.
• Vanquisher runs of this area without active quests require defeating around 115 foes. Including quest influences, it has been reported to range from 83 to 146 foes.
  • If starting from Ran Musu Gardens, do not engage many Mantid Drones together in Seijun Woods, their combined Deathly Swarms may overwhelm the party's healing.
  • A monk player should watch Kappa groups spike damage.
  • There are hidden Kappa popups in the sandy area to the west.
  • The Dragon Festival quest A Strange Request removes around 50 Crimson Skulls, including the bosses Auri the Skull Wand and Sulmeng the Skull Staff.
  • The Dragon Festival quest The Rampaging Yetis adds Yeti groups.

Anomaly. Even before the quest to go to the Aerie area, the map icon for the Naga Hide collector will show on the mission map, without the actual collector being in the Aerie.
