Water in the Desert

Summary

An important Nomaien tale, one that did actually happen tells of a woman and the man she chose as hers. The writer described her as the desert and her mate as being like the rare rains that fall on their world. ‘For she is the desert. The burning sands that cover our world. And he like the gentle rain, so rarely seen along the burning sands. Together, the rain and the desert will bloom with life anew.’
