A Sandy Desert Bazaar
Laid deep within the sand are stones that are able to support and stabilize
the weight of many caravans. These caravans house many merchants and
prospective buyers. Despite the city's devious nature, this is a somewhat
honest market. Those who buy, get what they pay for, whether or not that
merchandise is valuable is another question. Huge tents house many rich
bourgeoisie and many smaller tents house the commoners. A few stone buildings
shelter those who have been within the city long enough to amount a large
fortune and the time to construct their own dwelling. Sounds of merchants
dealing fill the air. The wind often picks up and blows the sand into the air,
creating a small sandstorm of sorts. During the day, when activity is at its
highest, the sun beats down all who are here to shop.

A Narrow Cobblestone Road
Cobblestones make up this road. The Sultan made this road out of this
easily obtainable stone because it's easy to maintain and it's very cheap.
Caravans and travelers can walk a little more easily than if the Sultan had
not thrown this cobblestone onto the desert. These stone allow for simple and
easy traveling. There are tents on either side of the narrow road. Nomads have
set up their tents in one of the most vacant parts of the city, and appreciate
their solitude more than most, they simply do not want to be disturbed. The
night air is especially cold in this region of the city, for it is the lowest
part. The cold night air settles all too readily here, the situation of the
cliffs sees to that. There are no posts, there are no lanterns, so the night
must be real dark, with only the moonlight to keep one company.

The stones have a light red color to them. More than likely the stones
have a great deal of clay within them. Some of these stones were in fact created
by being glazed by extremely hot furnaces from within the city. This street
is very wide, simply because it is frequented the most by many different races
of many different lands. This particular section of the city, if there could be
one, is the center. Alongside either side of the stone road tents are set up to
house the nomads that frequent the city. Most of these nomads stay no more than
a few months, some much briefer. Sounds of city life fill the air during the
days while, however, during the night only the slave traders are active,
selling their merchandise. Slave traders come from all over the lands to trade
here, for it is well known that nearly no other city would allow such an
inhumane business within its walls.

The Common Room of the Blinking Cowl Inn
The Blinking Cowl Inn is a rather popular resting place for the weary
travelers that frequent this desert city of the nomads. Although quite small in
comparison to many other Inns, the Blinking Cowl provides a comfortable
sanctuary for those who need a good night's rest, or shelter from the sun. The
price for ale is high, thus discouraging the locals from even bothering with
the place, thus attracting the richer populous of the city. The rooms, however,
are quite reasonably priced, considering its strategic location in the very
center of the city. The common room is designed rather cozy, with a few
circular rugs and a crackling fireplace in the southern wall. Several tables
are positioned around the room, used mainly by guests when they eat their
meals. A small stage has been pushed against the western wall, used by local
bards to perform their latest poems and songs. The reception area is here and
the bakery to the north, where travelers can purchase their food for the night.

Before a Pile of Refuse
There are some who would say that the desert really sucks. Most people who
live within this desert city agrees. Sand gets everyplace. It gets in your
ears, mouth, hair lungs, pants, shoes, and anyplace else imaginable. Like a
big bluebird everyone wishes they can fly away from this place. The sand is
course, the sun is terrible and relentless, the people stink, the sultan has
a terrible temper and executes a lot of people, and only god knows what else.
The cannion walls surround this encampment of desert peasants. It provides
protection from the desert storms that often sweep the city. Most of those
who cannot afford shelter or someplace of their own live here. Sounds of
the desert city life can be heard barely. Occasionally the wind will howl,
creating an errie sound, as if something was pleading to be released from pain.

A Lightly Pebbled Gravel Road
This lightly pebbled road cuts along the northern cliff of the desert city,
winding its way along the cold stone like a vicious desert snake. Sand blows
in small patches along the walkway, but most is kept from the city by the
walls and special barricades that line its perimeter. Squat huts and clay
houses of a varying size have been built along the road, taking up every
available space and leaving little room for alleys and yards. The occasional
hardy shrub grows up from the dry ground, but for the most part this region
is barren of plant and animal life. Only the tiniest pebble stirs here, as the
wind gently blows it along the winding desert city tracks. During the daytime,
this is the most blistering part of the city, and during the night it could be
mistaken for a barren wasteland, truly the most vacant section of the city.

Near an Oasis
This desert city has one great weakness, despite the Sultan's greatest
efforts to strengthen his city, water. Living in a desert habitat makes one
watch what he wastes. The desert surrounds the city structures in this area,
and this is one of the most heavily populated areas of the city. One reason
for this being, an oasis lays nearby. This oasis isn't the major source of
water for the city, however, whomever has enough money can allocate a spot to
supply himself with water from this oasis. One cannot freely walk up to this
precious supplier of water undaunted, for there are guards to protect it's
overuse. The sultan has been known on occasion to post bounties on those who
steal his precious water, without paying. The stones that make up the wrong
are packed into the desert sand. During the night, travelers need light,
therefore, the sultan built an array of poles about twenty feet apart, each
with a lantern on top.

An Oasis
The fresh water looks inviting. Thousands of gallons of fresh drinking
water sits softly in the sun for all who can afford it. The Sultan has a huge
supply problem, the intake of water into the city is far less than the
consumption. If the sultan is to maintain a prosperous city, he is going to
have to buy water from outside sources, very expensive. If there were someway
for him to buy water very cheap, he'd do it, otherwise he'll exhaust other
methods first. Nothing is impossible for a sultan, for sultans are the owners
of the land, and accumulate vast wealth from those living on it. The hot
desert heat scorches the flesh during the day, and it is best only to expose
oneself to it briefly. Desert nomads who wander into the city often do so
during the night, for traveling in the desert is only possible by it. A few
palm trees encircle the oasis, stripped bear by camels. This oasis is also
relaxing. Resting here would be a great idea if one was tired or wounded.

Near an Oasis
This desert city has one great weakness, despite the Sultan's greatest
efforts to strengthen his city, water. Living in a desert habitat makes one
watch what he wastes. The desert surrounds the city structures in this area,
and this is one of the most heavily populated areas of the city. One reason
for this being, an oasis lays nearby. This oasis isn't the major source of
water for the city, however, whomever has enough money can allocate a spot to
supply himself with water from this oasis. One cannot freely walk up to this
precious supplier of water undaunted, for there are guards to protect it's
overuse. The sultan has been known on occasion to post bounties on those who
steal his precious water, without paying. The stones that make up the wrong
are packed into the desert sand. During the night, travelers need light,
therefore, the sultan built an array of poles about twenty feet apart, each
with a lantern on top.

A Lightly Pebbled Gravel Road
This lightly pebbled road cuts along the northern cliff of the desert city,
winding its way along the cold stone like a vicious desert snake. Sand blows
in small patches along the walkway, but most is kept from the city by the
walls and special barricades that line its perimeter. Squat huts and clay
houses of a varying size have been built along the road, taking up every
available space and leaving little room for alleys and yards. The occasional
hardy shrub grows up from the dry ground, but for the most part this region
is barren of plant and animal life. Only the tiniest pebble stirs here, as the
wind gently blows it along the winding desert city tracks. During the daytime,
this is the most blistering part of the city, and during the night it could be
mistaken for a barren wasteland, truly the most vacant section of the city.

A Narrow Cobblestone Road
Cobblestones make up this road. The Sultan made this road out of this
easily obtainable stone because it's easy to maintain and it's very cheap.
Caravans and travelers can walk a little more easily than if the Sultan had
not thrown this cobblestone onto the desert. These stone allow for simple and
easy travelling. There are tents on either side of the narrow road. Nomads have
set up their tents in one of the most vacant parts of the city, and appreciate
their solitude more than most, they simply do not want to be disturbed. The
night air is especially cold in this region of the city, for it is the lowest
part. The cold night air settles all too readily here, the situation of the
cliffs sees to that. There are no posts, there are no lanterns, so the night
must be real dark, with only the moonlight to keep one company.

A Shoppe of the Traveling People
This is a pleasant place. Tinkerers are a traveling group of people that
travel to many distant lands and see many different creatures. If anyone in
this entire city could answer a question concerning other places or things,
they could. The desert seems to amplify in intensity to the northeast,
becoming an open dune. It seems the tinkerers have setup camp outside this
dune, for what reason? Maybe they are deciding whether they wish to traverse
this great dune toward the infamous mountains of pain. The mountains of pain
is a twin of the mountain of peril, both great mountains with completely
different atmospheres, however, they both bear the names synonymous with
evil intent or death. A large caravan has beem setup around a circle of
caravans, it is a shoppe, a shoppe of a tinkerer, which is bound to be worth
visiting. There is an old saying, 'Shop till'ya drop'.
