The air was different as soon as I stepped off of the sandy dunes of the Gobo Desert, almost like I was playing a video game with how swiftly the biomes changed.
It went from unbearably hot to just warm in mere moments and steps, and I let out a sigh of relief as I turned to look back at the darkening desert.
"I never want to be in a desert again... and yet there are two more to go through..."
I sighed once more as I watched the desert go from a blindingly gold to a subdued yellow, the sun descending behind the mountains that were to the west.
My stomach growled at me, telling me that I needed real food soon, especially after the strenuous trek across unstable sand.
The mana I wanted to use to steady myself was instead spent making sure I didn't pass out under the heat, while I also needed to keep some in reserve for those monsters that hid under the sand.
