After completing a certain quest in Rivenspire, certain local troublemakers have vacated the upper side of the city that they were occupying. I've not made a ton of quests in the game, but I've noticed many areas have these kinds of local factions that are the most common enemy type in a given area. I was wondering if there are more/many quests involving "regaining" a territory, and if there are permanent effects like that one, where defeating one of these groups via quests can clear some areas of enemies, or at least of that particular kind of enemy.

I know it's probably a very personal opinion, but I'd find it very cool, both from a role-playing perspective, it just makes sense, gives a sense of purpose and also as someone who doesn't enjoy combat very much it'd be nice to roam around some areas without bumping into enemies respawning every minute, after I quested to get the area rid of them.
