They guard the sources of the water. The desert is part shifting sands, and part high chaparral with cactus and scrubby grass. There are oases. The mountains have caves that shelter the most dangerous creatures that come out at night. Day lasts 48 hours, and night lasts 48 hours.There are a number of dangerous species on this desert world.
