As far as the dog was aware, only two major mountain ranges bordered the desert basin, anchoring it like bookends in the barren stretch of land. He knew the eastern ridges well from his travels with Akashingo nobility, however, not the westward range that he now knew himself to be trapped in. This was unknown territory, though not as wholly unfamiliar as before. A minor revelation, but enough to offer a faint sense of grounding.

He turned, offering a cordial smile as he met the eyes of the disciples, projecting an easy, practiced charm.
Then, turning his attention back to Zitari, his gaze sharpened.

You've upheld your end of the transaction wonderfully, so I bid you eat your fill. If this is not enough to sate you, you only need ask for more,he finished, passing a berry between his splotched lips.
suck the rot right out of my bloodstream
