Imeatuka Desert

Imeatuka Desert is a desert that covers much of the eastern half of the territory claimed by the Moyo Hodari Pride. It is known for its lack of water, making journeys across it difficult.

Appearance
Imeatuka Desert is a parched, arid stretch of land. The ground is composed of hard-packed yellow-brown earth, topped by a thin layer of sand, that is cracked by the sun. Low shrubbery is about the only vegetation to be found for miles, and there are few trees or boulders to provide shade. However, there are plenty of bones lying about- the remains of animals who failed to survive the heart and torridity. Cacti, such as the paddle cactus, grow in some areas of the region, but not all.

Inhabitants
Due to the lack of rocks and the hardness of the earth, there is little shelter for animals. However, where there are rocks or plants, some creatures, mostly lizards, have made their homes.
