Cooldown60 days
As you set out again after the battle, you feel a few scattered drops of rain. Then there is a rush of wind, and a wall of dust engulfs you. The blowing grains sting your face, and you can see but a few arms' lengths ahead. You know that it is a simple matter for men to get lost in the notorious sandstorms of the Nahhas, only to be found later dead of thirst or buried in a dune.
