Expeditions into the sands tend to sooner or later encounter different kinds of danger. To ensure the safety of absentminded explorers, prospectors, scholars and the like, the Academy assigns them with its sorcerers. Trained in combat and survival, their role is to safely escort these expeditions through the shifting dunes and ancient ruins. These are teeming with vicious monstrosities guarding their offspring, territory, treasures or simply craving for a bite.
