Shaahri Desert

The Shaahri Desert is in the southern part of Aetherius, past the Heartlands and slightly southwest of Stavenn. The desert is one of the loneliest places in Imperian. Inhabited mainly by creatures such as lizards and hyenas, it is not a place to linger in. There are several small communities that have sprung up around small spots of water, including the larger city of Antioch.
