Erudites are originally from South Ro?

I mean they must be. Erudite cultural armor's main ingredient can only be farmed in South Ro. This never made sense to me. Why don't Terrorantulas spawn on Odus? Seems like they could throw a few Terrorantulings in Toxx and have Terrorantula itself spawn in Stonebrunt Mountains along with the other three "Ancient" beasts that spawn in that huge zone that no one uses.

...or I'm supposed to believe that Erudites decided to use a rare silk from the far side of another continent in an area they have absolutely no claim to for their culture's armor.

Whatever Varent...whatever.
