-Hadarack Desert-
A piece of land that was known for killing everything and anything that ever went more than a few miles into it, has now become bearable and travelable. The Hadarack Desert is still dangerous and ever changed but over past centuries plant life has come up. Water that had long ago flowed into hidden rivers deep below sands surface can now be tapped into with the means of a steel shovel and a lot of patience. Small pits have been made in the desert to provide water sources for travelers. These pits have grown fewer in numbers due to needing constant attention with every storm that threatens to bury them. The inhabitants of Bullridge are getting tired of maintaining them after nearly hundred years.
Despite these changes and modern technological advances most people still take the long way around when traveling the Hadarack Desert. While it may take a far larger amount of time to follow Du Weldenvarden Forest forests line or the Beor Mountains mountain line, people still greatly fear the heart of the desert.
Everyone still remembers the great battle happening between the two mountains that lie in the heart of the Hadarack Desert. These mountains can be seen on the rare clear days from Bullridge. To this day they remained unnamed and even those that travel through the desert make a point to go around the old battle field. Despite the fear of the two mountains as a deterrent, Dras-Leona Queen had made it against the law to enter the valley between the two mountains.
The people of Farthen-Dur believe that western border of the Hadarack Desert marks the beginning of the unknown lands, despite Hedarth location. They believe this because everything that starts behind the desert, which includes the Beor Mountains and Du Weldenvarden Forest, is uncharted. That the true Farthen-Dur only reaches as far as from the sea to outpost Bullridge and up and down from Ceunon and Aberon.
*Small Reminder: Days, extremely hot---Night, flipping cold!*

*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*
The golden sunlight illuminated the great spretch of sand that went on and on like a dried up sea. There seemed no end in sight save for the patches of life that sprung up in little spots where the streams of life moved close enough to nurish them.
Maero was astonished how easy it was to see them now. Like lights in the dark when she shut her eyes and focused. Her mind could sense them like hearing water in the distance. A faintest sound, bearly noticeable, but unmistakable to anything else.
~ How far do you think it is?~
' Not too far, we can fly there in a few hours time. Then settle for the night. What amazes me is how you're still visable my friend.'
~ as am I... I've never been tangible this long before. There is much we must find out lil one.. so lets hurry.~
' Alright- but... what if someone sees you?'
~ We'll come to that bridge when we get to it, but I'll keep a sharp eye out.~
The giant winged creature then soared overhead, keeping close to the direction of the sun. If one were to look up they'd been blinded by the lights glare... the only tell tale sign of this mysterious pair's approach, was the giant shadow they casted on the ground beneath them.
' A few more days travel and we shou;d start seeing the landscape change...'
~ Asuming we're going in the right direction.~
' Oh that's reeeeally helpful...'

Hano stared into the endless number of Sand Dunes ahead of him, the moonlight giving him little sight.
"How did I get here?" He asked himself. "How did I end up in such a terrible place?" He looked out. Nothing, or no one, was alive around him. He knew he would die here. What's the point of trying? He would just tire himself out and lay dead on the dunes faster than if he conserved his energy.
"This world is better off without me. I was just hoping to live a little while longer....and feel the warmth of love again." He shook his head.
"No....I can't love ever again. I won't let anything happen to anyone else because of me." He sat down on the dune. "I shall see you soon, Shi." He closed his eyes and fell into sleep.

Hano awoke, the sun peeking out from the dunes just enough to annoy him awake.
"Geez....I can't believe I slept on that." He wiped the sand from his hair and walked for some time before seeing, what he thought, was a mirage.
"......Bullridge?" he gasped. He tumbled and stumbled near the outpost.
"I can't believe it!"
He ran as fast as his legs could take them, until he stumbled into the gates of Bullridge.
