Desert Lookout Ridge
Ridge Overlooking the Well of Souls Dig
Elevated desert ridge commands a sweeping view over the clandestine Well of Souls excavation site. Omar posts one of his men here as lookout, eyes scanning dunes for rivals while the crew below labors through night into day—shovels biting sand, bodies drenched in sweat, progress measured in aching hours under makeshift cover. Secrecy sharpens every glance into the wind-swept dark.
