Second Life 3

Ce qui embellit le désert, dit le petit prince, c'est qu'il cache un puits quelque part…

(“What makes the desert beautiful,“ said the little prince, "is that somewhere it hides a well...“)

Antoine de Saint Exupéry


Yes, the desert is a strange place. These are the never-ending places of the sand dunes and also of moving sand, which gives downfall. This is the place, where the torrid sun troubles the tired wanderers. This is the place, where the sky is full of the stars so closed to anyone like never. Sometimes the wail wind runs around and the sand tempest comes. What is constant, these are only “ships of the desert” – the camels and the fata morgana. This is an optical phenomenon, which owes its own name to mythic Morgana La Fey. It is hopeless to search the lost cities in the sand. Maybe only the silent oasis can wet the dry lips and strengthen the body before the further wandering.
Is it a fiction or a reality? It is a question. Maybe such desert exists in RL and maybe not. Angara Desert is another desert at Angara. Some ghost city was built there as an apocalyptic vision of the total loss and of the vainness inspired by the The Resident Evil phenomenon. It is both the Role Play Area and the shopping area. It is:
