Random encounters in the world

One thing that I enjoyed from my time playing the chrono odyssey beta was the random encounters that would occur when traveling. For example a cart would be getting attacked by a group of bandits or wolves. It's simple but it helps to make traveling a bit less monotonous. It also makes me think about the encounters in the dragons dogma remake. There was a gray feeling from being attacked in the middle of the night while in a cart by a cyclops and or a griffin. Kept the blood pumping. I believe expanding a decent bit on these ideas within ashes would help with the lull of traveling great distances.

But what I DID love were the quests that would trigger if you were in a certain location and heard an npc cry out for help. Now THAT was a super cool mechanic.
And there would even be chains of these quests, where I saved a dude on a waterfall that talked about some bandits in a nearby location stealing his stuff. Then when I came to that location this same npc was now caught by the bandits and I had to save them and then kill a named mob in the area to get a certain item. And I think there's a continuation to this chain too, but I didn't get that far during my gameplay.
Definitely hope we manage to get something similar in Ashes.
