The Cursed Sands

Today merchants, adventurers, petty kings come from all across Ao in hopes of staking their claim on the long abandoned desert. They are faced with massive desert storms that limit travel, months-long treks across the sands, and violence at the hand of bandits and the wildlife lying in wait. For those that come will they gain glory and the wealth of the foregone nation or is their fate just to feed the vultures in the ancient desert of Drostan.
