The desert is full of treasure, waste, hope, despair, and beauty. Neither of which is really more than the other. Give and take seems to be it's creed. If you are lucky, it will bestow a random gem upon you in your travels, but even if luck is lacking, there is still beauty to behold, if only you know where to look. It's amazing to see how things have evolved out here, in no man's land. Plants, animals, and even the characteristics of rocks carry to take on a Mad Max esque aura to them.
