Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Fauna's mighty wings flapped and scattered the sands in the desert as they tried to land in front of Saburra's shrines. In contrast to the previous shrines they traveled to, there were no monsters in the surrounding area, much to their surprise. Was it because very few beasts could survive the desert? Or did they all flee somewhere else? They weren't very sure if it was good news or bad news. If they fled to the next continent, then it would just make their next journey more challenging.
