Exporing Dragon Spine: The Death Canyon

Drachenkamm00%20

This time, Samsonyte’s expedition leads to the southern edge of the Dragon Spine. There, the field of play to deter too curious explorers is not limited by sandworms, but by a miles-deep canyon. Anyone who dares to jump down there and then revive will be overwhelmed by a momentary death spell.

But the programmers did not expect the resourcefulness of explorers, who nevertheless find a way. :sunglasses:

It begins here, at the southern archaeological site, and is initially identical to the path that leads to the local panorama.
The further way can be seen here:

That’s why an old explorer trick is used, namely a level of firewood at half height:

It worked, Samsonyte is above:

Now only the Acheron barrier has to be overcome. A little bit of jumping in the right place …

… and that’s done

Samsonyte is now on the high plateau outside the invisible barrier:

From up here there are already fantastic views:

… but my goal is the death canyon:

Now I have to find a way down:

Since this does not exist, only a jump into the depth with subsequent revival helps.

Arrived at the bottom of the canyon, I have circumvented the death spell:

Samsonyte first explores the canyon in a westerly direction. There it ends in a kind of natural arena.
You should not enter this area. Here are sandworms again:

Interesting, that even down here vegetation is to be found:

Samsonyte moves cautiously eastward:

The sight is getting worse and the death spell can strike at any time:

And then it happened. - Without warning, the death spell struck and put an end to my expedition here:

This is my expedition map:
