Habitat
The Animal Fairies and Animals of the Sunway Desert Clan live on the western edge of a desert. There is a forest close by, just a bit further to the west. There are small streams and ponds for water and bathing, fed mainly by rivers coming out of the western forest, which originated in the mountains to the northwest. There are a lot of cacti, scrub brush and sand dunes. The Animal Fairies and Animals of the Sunway Desert Clan enjoy life in the desert, but also often spend time in the nearby forest to gather food and for shelter during storms.
The Great Desert to the East
The desert is so large that it is very rarely crossed. The further east you travel, there is less and less water, vegetation and shelter available. It is also very hot. Animal Fairies and birds have attempted to fly across without doing any planning, traveling for days, only to turn back due to no signs of food or water. When members of the clan travel deep into the desert to explore, they plan their trip carefully, an do things like bury stashes of water, nuts, and dried fruits and vegetables, for future travels.
There are stories saying a Firebird Fairy and several Firebirds live somewhere deep in the desert, and they don’t like visitors. Traveling Animal Fairies and Animals try and stay on the barely visible trails to avoid getting lost and also to hopefully avoid running into the dreaded Firebird Fairy and Firebirds.
