Between Bone City to the west and Gopher Gulch to the east lies a vast, empty stretch of dunes. To most the region does not even warrant consideration; it is simply "more Sahwhat." But the savvy Hopper knows it by a different name: The Undersands. For beneath the dunes lies a twisting labyrinth of caverns and tunnels, accessible from caves in the low buttes rising from the sand known only to a few. In recent times, the Undersands have been overrun by necrotic magics, and they say the sands are roamed at night by the undead.
