The Shattered Seas

Hidden within the fortress city, the Desert Bloom Gardens are an oasis of lush, vibrant plant life cultivated by the city's scholars and gardeners. Located within the walls of Asharak, these gardens are a symbol of defiance against the surrounding desert's harshness. The gardens feature rare desert flowers and plants that only grow in the city’s climate, attracting botanists, alchemists, and herbalists who seek out the rare plants for medicinal or magical uses. Many of the flowers here are said to have unusual properties, from healing to enhancing memory, though their true effects are often shrouded in mystery.

The gardens are a riot of colors, with vibrant flowers blooming amidst carefully arranged greenery, creating a stark contrast to the arid landscape outside. Pathways wind through the gardens, lined with exotic plants and the sweet scent of blossoms fills the air.
