Fictional Backstory:
Any environment has own lords, the absolute rulers. For deserts, “The absolute one” is the SandWorms. Ask to locals, all of them knows that, is the unescapeable end for everyone who lost in the dunes is the Ruler of the sands, not heat of the sun. and always remember that old words left behind by the ancestors of locals: if you hearing that sun sings, and wind wispers while sands are dances under feets, Behold The Absolute!
