The Desert of Luxury, aptly named for it's glorious pure white sands along the clear waters of the cloudy gulf. Not only a source of wealth for tourism, but the composition of the white sand makes for the clearest of crystal glass. With all it's natural wonder, and rich minerals there is no wonder why the settlement known as The Oasis of Acorel came it be. However it was not the first to grace these lands. Their are tales of myth and legend about an accident lost civilization that used to populate the desert. Many thought it as just old fools tales. However the digging of minerals have found a handful of relic they would suggest otherwise.<br/><br/>Acorel is more or less just one giant market. Various merchants spread out trading all kinds of goods. Taking advantage of all the poor rubes dragged in by shiny crystal bobbles and warm beaches. Most stand are little more than some sticks and cloth to keep the merchant out of the sun. There are a few stone brick buildings. There are often glass forges, or lodging. The most popular of lodging would have to be The Mermaid's Pearl. It towers among the city being the only building that has three stories.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Piratharaxalar</div><div class="spoiler_body">It's no surprise that a place called the Desert of Luxury caught the eye of a young red dragon. It sounded like the best place for him to start every dragon's life task, amassing a hoard. Walking through the desert was almost like paradise for you. The hot sun beating down on your red scales like a flame made you all warm inside. Not to mention the sand felt especially nice between your claws. It felt rich, like the sand had some unseen value that you couldn't quite understand. After a good day of traveling you finally make it to a settlement. It was high noon, the beautiful sun beating down from over head, when suddenly you notice a second ball of fire in the sky. it comes crashing down before hitting a mile or so outside the south of town. From this distance you can't make out what it was, but there is now a large creator when it hit.</div></div><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Laryon Firesong</div><div class="spoiler_body">The last week has been little more of a blur. You had got a gig at the Mermaid's Pearl. It didn't pay much, and your hedonistic lifestyle was doing a solid job of spending about the same as you made each night. But oh were those some fun nights. At times it was hard to tell where you ended and your partners began. Either way it was just about noon. The tavern was still and quiet. All the patrons from the night before still hung over and in no mood for bardic entertainment. There was little to other than just sit and drink while waiting for things to pick up again. It was then there was a rumble that caused the room the shake. It was followed by a bright flash and shock wave that cause many a hungover mortal to grunt out in disgust. Venturing out would show that there was now a large crater about a mile outside the south of town. <br/></div></div><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Serielye</div><div class="spoiler_body">Woo!

After all this inter-planer travel isn't so har- Oh my Gods! you are coming in to fast! Quick pull up pull up! You went into a tailspin, crashed into a dune, and it exploded in a giant fireball, and everything around died, except for you. There you are sitting in a big o' fiery smouldering crater in the ground. But in the distance you see a town. Also there is a big door in the crater. Which to be honest is a very strange place to put one.</div></div>
