We know its there, just not accessible for us. It made me dislike stormbloods hubs a lot. I loved Kugane, but besides the MB and Eureka and the Inn there was nothing there (the rowena npc's were added much later).

IMO stormblood suffered from the split and the split itself suffered from them insisting on the 4.0 + 4.1-4.3 + 4.4-4.5 formula.
It always felt weird to me that after Zenos wrecked havoc that we still stayed there.
Normally wouldn't a location that's been compromised get evacuated and relocated?
