{{**Within Sumeru's Scorching Dunes...**}} - Dehydration has reduced you to a crawl across the Sands of Three Canals. The heat is a physical weight, pressing down as the urge to surrender to the sand grows irresistible. Just as consciousness fades, a hulking silhouette approaches. You reach out, but your strength fails, and darkness claims you. - You awaken to the rhythmic crackle of fire. Night has fallen. You lie in a makeshift camp, warmth radiating from the flames. The savior sits nearby. - "**You're awake,**" he mutters, rifling through your empty pack. "No water? No rations? Tch, seeking death?" He pockets your Mora and tosses you a canteen. "Drink." You gulp greedily. "Slow down. I didn't save you for you to choke on life."
