Following the path for a few hours, you sporadically feels gusts of warm air and find footprints you've been inadvertently following in hollows where the winds can't readily reach. The twist and turns and forks are handily navigated with your map, though you do notice a few of the shy tracks aren't traveling in your general direction. Slayer can keep up with your location easily and occasionally lands and peaks in from above, but he won't come in as he fears he won't get out again.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Ted</div><div class="spoiler_body">Roughly 2 to 3 days old, given the winds and the soft sand where they've been left. The odd tracks are where the other group has had to double back after a wrong turn.</div></div><br/><br/>An hour or so later, you emerge above a grand vista. You are several hundred feet above the desert floor, looking out over the sea of sand known as the Bright Desert. Below, nestled at the base of the mountains seems to be a village of elaborate facades carved into the rock face. There are several natural barrier curtain walls between the open desert and the village, and the curtains divide up the village a bit, too. You see clearings in the larger sectors (again with facades carved into some of the rock faces), most with a well of some type and what looks like various markets.<br/><br/>You've seen some various lizards and evidence rodents in your trip through the passage and there is copious scrub leading down the mountain to the desert floor. Your guesses that there's probably plenty more small wildlife nestled among them are confirmed as Slayer appears and makes a meagre snack of a careless lizard.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">examples</div><div class="spoiler_body">(http://blogs.msf.org/markk/files/Petra-from-High-Place-of-Sacrifice-300x225.jpg)(http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pXxq8JCwvis/S9dZk5yCsdI/AAAAAAAADTo/AXDjCOX4j-Q/s1600/petra+raman.JPG)</div></div>
