[D2LM] That's why we can't have nice things (Open)

[Moto Mitsuki]

"Because the trip is worth the effort. While the Sands themselves are not a welcoming place, they don't stretch out forever, and eventually your horse will carry you to a place of beauty.

To the west, the Qamarist Caliphate, home to the best mathematicians and architects in the world, that can build castles of stone as elegant as the Crane's and as solid as the Crab's.

To the south, the Ivory Kingdoms, fertile lands blessed with a multitude of plants, animals and spirits the like of even the most savant Phoenix scholars have never heard of.

And hidden in the sands themselves also await a few city states that have grown their own culture and marvels.

The road is not the end. It is the way."
