Bright Desert

Since the beginning of recorded history in the Flanaess, the Bright Desert has intrigued and challenged mankind. It is supposedly filled with riches-copper, silver, gold, and gems. The harsh climate, wildly varying temperatures and hostile inhabitants who battle any intruder with ferocious determination and blood lust tend to discourage exploitation. The dervishes rumored to dwell in the bordering Abbor Alz foothills likewise turn away would-be exploreres, although if such dervishes actually exist, they are likely to be of Flan extraction and hos­tile to Suloise nomads. One or two organized forces have attempted to penetrate the Bright Desert, but none have ever returned to tell what happened.
