Sly Fox Sand Dunes Freshwater eel

Fiona parted ways with Prowler for a time, letting the small bandit know she would return at a later date. She wished to trek into the strange lands to the southeast, where there were few hiding spots for her familiar. Do not wander far, she had instructed the raccoon days ago.

Now, she was in a land unlike anything she had ever seen. The world was barren, dry, and devoid of green. Sand covered the earth, but no ocean was in sight. There were only rolling dunes that swept sand into her eyes when wind blew across them. She did not like this place, but as she turned back north, she spotted a lone figure atop the next hill. They were large and bore a grey coat with a bright red tail.
