Exiting the canyon marked a significant milestone in their journey. They had overcome plenty of challenges in the canyon and grown considerably stronger, but they knew that even greater trials lay ahead. Basen and his group were still on their trail, and the Empire of the Dark Sun was vast, with many more dangers waiting to be faced.
As they emerged from the canyon, Lyle and his companions found themselves in a desolate wasteland, a stark contrast to the rugged terrain they had just traversed. The landscape was barren and lifeless, with no signs of civilization or habitation in sight.
It was the same when they were making their way to the canyon. An entire area about 1 mile around the forbidden area which was the 'Cursed Canyon' was nothing but a desolate wasteland where no life could be found.
They made their way forward, fully aware that after traversing a mile, they would be out of the wasteland.
