Anauroch, The Great Desert

Well, I guess the first thing to do is tell you about the death trap on this map. Avoid the Desert Oasis (DO) north of Approaching an Oasis (Ao). You go there and get swallowed by a sand worm! Apart from that one more general warning: This area is tough. You can run into demons that'll do you upwards of 200 hp damage when you're Extremely Well Armored so be a little careful.

North from the Chasm (Ch) takes you to the Cell of the Chasm (Wc). East and west just bring you back to the same room. West from the Shoal of Thirst (So) to '*' just leaves you in the same room, as does going west from the View of a Pyramid (VP) to '*'. East from the Long Route acutally takes you to the Caravan Route (Cr) west of The Throat (Tt). West of the Desert's Edge (De) takes you to the Long Route (Lr). East and west from Lost on the Desert (Ld) just takes you to other lost in the Desert rooms. There're only a few of them and you almost always end up back at this one.

To get to Daggerdale you need to pass Over the Chasm (Oc) and you need to be flying to do that and, finally, you obviously need to be flying, swimming or have a boat to go onto the Ishtar River.

If you'd like to make a quick run to this zone, we recommend the following directions, starting at The Common in Shadowdale: 4s2wn4w4n2w3s8wsw. You must be flying to use this route.
