Roc

In remote desert mountains, far from any city or settlement, enormous raptors are rumoured to nest in the lofty crags. Travellers and nomads claim to have witnessed livestock and grown men snatched into the sky without warning by these monsters. While one should not place much faith in the accounts of the desert roamers, they are less fantastical than the drunken lies of sailors who claim to have witnessed full-rigged ships, attempting to navigate the narrow straits between the sheer cliffs where nothing can grow, sunk by giant eagles dropping large rocks.

Whatever kernel of truth is in these tall tales, there is no denying that the desert is a dangerous place, and both traders and armies do sometimes disappear when trying to cross the harsh ranges. If you must traverse the great deserts, keep an eye to the sky.
