The air around them felt heavy and dry. Dark brown dust drifted through the atmosphere and moved across the barren landscape like a thin veil. The particles struck against their exposed skin, giving them an unpleasant sensation as they stood in the open air.
None of the four Dragonborn had activated their Dragon scales yet so their bodies could still feel the harsh environment directly.
The ground beneath them was dark brown and cracked across countless places. Deep fractures stretched through the dry soil, some of them wide enough to disappear into darkness. It looked as though the land had not received rain for an extraordinarily long time.
Above them, the sky was a strange mixture of gray, brown, and deep red. Thick layers of ash seemed to fill the atmosphere, turning the sunlight into a weak and distant glow. The entire sky looked as though it had once been burning and had never fully recovered from it, only the ash remains.
