The sun was bright and blinding and he was sure it would be scorching if it wasn't a simulation, his health had already dropped by a percent since he arrived at the desert he suspected that it was due to the fact that his avatar was getting dehydrated really quickly.
Renjiro decided to head north, he walked through the desert for what he considered to be over an hour but there was nothing in sigh, at the moment he felt like he was going in circles.
Renjiro shook his head in anger as he trudged on, he hadn't encountered any demons or beasts yet but his health had halved, he had walked what he considered to be another mile when a large scorpion the size of a bob cat leapt at him, renjiro was too surprised to act quickly and he was stung thrice in quick succession.
