A vast desert stretches for miles.  Sand constantly shifts around you and
The sand meets rock to the west of you as some large mountains rise out of
the desert.  
     A large termite mound rises from the ground here.
A little sand turtle is hiding from the mid-day sun here.

A large, red scorpion is here flashing his stinger.
