Issiq

Region inside B'Av — Base for Colonies
Deserts and badlands

[ Desert. Chaparral.]
[ Semi-Arid | Desert ]

An arid land of sparse vegetation and desert-like dryness, Issiq is the land on the north east side of the island. The desert sand in many places can be unique colours, usually tinted purple. Issiq also has many rocky spires and arches that appear to be natural in origin. Watering holes and oases dot across the region, allowing for the roaming tribes to survive across the great desert. Due to the sandstorms that wrack the region, not much is known, though there are rumors of an ancient city. Near many of the watering holes are small pockets of basaraytz.

More hands the better, as the saying went, and so they met at the transport pad on the ground atop the ravine where Boti's home lay. Sky had wanted to accompany them and was circling above, barely having to flap zir wings with the desert updrafts. Even in the...

Noodle, Ambergris, and Bloodstone were in Issiq, helping Boti out, when the sandstorm warning sirens began to wail, and their wristbands beeped to life with the weather alert. All four of them paused in their retrofitting of one of the air conditioners, and Boti made a disgruntled noise. "That storm wasn't supposed to hit until tomorrow -!" Their feathers rose and fell in agitation, and Bloodstone cocked her head. "Is there anything we can do to help prepare?" "No - ...
