Zenurius Desert

A nation surrounded by the swirling sands of the scorched desert, Zenurius has built it's capital on the southern coast, where the land has become more habitable. The desert itself is walled in by mountain ranges of loose dry rock, the minerals within them give the rock a colorful look of deep red. As such the only feasible entrance to the desert itself is the Gate of Engar, a massive wall built centuries ago to protect the kingdom, it stands 150 feet in height, while two 35 foot doors that swing wide with the aid of livestock bar the entrance. The desert is harsh, and dangerous, hosting all sorts of disagreeable creatures, who in their adaptation to the brutal environment, have developed the means to be feared and respected as predators.
