As the sun climbed higher over the desert horizon, Ethan paused to catch his breath and pulled an old, worn book from his leather bag.
The cover was dusty, but he knew how valuable this book was, especially now that he had to face the wild creatures of the Maritak Desert.
The zoology book was filled with handwritten notes and rough sketches left by previous adventurers records of dangerous creatures found in various wild habitats.
Elyndor, observing through Ethan's eyes, asked curiously, "What are you looking for, Ethan?"
Ethan flipped to a page labeled "Maritak Desert," replying, "I want to make sure I'm familiar with the creatures here. This desert is famous for its poisonous wildlife and natural traps. You mentioned there were dangerous creatures in this desert, so I want to be prepared."
