The Semi-Desert

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 47710

The pair soon found themselves in semi-desert, a stark contrast from the valley they had not long left behind. Besides the desert itself, this was one of the more hostile environments they could find themselves in. Sand, rocks and a few straggling plants. The only wildlife they saw here were fleeting glances of creatures such as desert foxes and geckos. Looking around, they had to shade their eyes from the glare, counting themselves lucky they weren't here at midday, where the heat would be near- intolerable for someone like Astra who was more used to hot climes.

Of course, their biggest worry was that they would have to travel across the desert to get to this Temple of the Spirits. If they did, there would be no food or water unless they were directed towards an oasis. Even finding cacti, a good source of water, would be useless as they didn't have any means to cut it with. Fortunately, though, they found their fears were unfounded. The Temples of the Spirits was several miles to the northwest, in the region between the desert and semi-desert. To the pair it seemed like an odd place for a temple, but they just did as they were told. After returning the jewel, they could spend the night in the temple before carrying on.

  1. Their journey to the temple was uneventful.
  2. Sitting on a rock to rest, Astra was stung by a scorpion.
  3. They came across the remains of a dead fox.
