Sea of Dust

The Sea of Dust is an expansive desert in central Avas, home to numerous independent city-states. The desert is known for its numerous ancient ruins, some still protected by undying guardians and deadly traps preserving their vast riches, and the bleached bones of long dead, titanic creatures that jut from the dunes.

The largest city-state within the Sea of Dust is the city of Zeryphesh, home to the Zeraphi people.

Outside of the walled city-states, many tribes of nomadic wanderers live among the dunes, traveling from oasis to oasis according to traditions that date back to well before humans began to build cities.

According to legend, the Sea of Dust was created when the kaiju Bezravnis fell from the comet known as the Inferno Star. Bezravnis's fiery planetfall and its subsequent rampage scorched nearly all life from the region, turning a once-fertile landscape into a vast expanse of shifting dunes.
