Lantern Dunes

Public lore preserves the setting's disagreements and uncertain histories.

These night-bright dune fields glow with drifting lights that are not wholly obedient to wind or spell. Some are free elementals, some contract remnants, some natural phenomena still debated by scholars. Caravans prize the dunes for navigation and fear them for the same reason. Those who follow the wrong lights have been known to arrive at wells that do not appear on any map or at camps that vanish by dawn.
