The Quartz Desert

This is a special or perhaps magical terrain. To the south of The Well, on the other side of the Meadow Mountains is an area as dry as The Well is lush. Here is the highest concentration of quartz to sand of any deserts on the world.

This is a desert region with a staggeringly high concentration of extremely fine, extremely pure and generally magical quartz; it is the location for the highest quality glassmaking sands the world has to offer. So pure is this quartz sand that it has no trouble, when paired with the appropriate flux and stabiliser, to make the clearest and the strongest glass.

Watch transfixed as the sunlight dances across the dunes, and be in awe of its purity.
