Chapter 165: The Wagon Circle of the Jakool Za Za

Lassim followed Bajeel across the rolling dunes, the humanoid-lizard leader of the Jakool Za Za tribe moving with a confident ease through the sand. 

As they crested a particularly high dune, Lassim saw the wagon circle of the Jakool Za Za tribe nestled in a shallow valley between dunes below. The wagons were arranged in a protective ring, with tents and small fires scattered around the perimeter. 

As they approached, Lassim noticed the unique creatures leashed to the wagons—large, patterned dogs with powerful builds, a large tuft of hair that ran down their spines and a keen, predatory look in their eyes. 

Bajeel noticed Lassim's curiosity and smiled.
