A giant creature was wriggling atop the golden dunes in the most confused-looking manner. The colossal worm would head in one direction, just to suddenly do a sharp turn without apparent reason. This happened over and over again.
Someone extremely attentive would have noticed a man standing on the creature's back. Josh was very carefully scanning his surroundings. Oftentimes he would feel slight killing from the ground ambushes and guide the worm away from danger.
He was akin to a driving instructor assigned to a catastrophically failing student. He would often be exclaiming at the worm's shenanigans:
"No, turn here! You're heading right into a Snake! Fuck!"
"Can't you see that dragon on our right? It's literally roaring at us!"
"Why are you stopping?! Monsters are chasing us!"
"Motherfucker, nononono! Please don't try to hide and — Dammit!"
