From the alien rain forest of Nu Orne to the dry desert heat of Shifting Sands – such are the travels of an intrepid SL blogger… Shifting sands is a build by Kayle Matzerath that presents us with a world of flowing water – and flowing sand huddled under a ruddy-orange sky.

Sponsored, somewhat appropriately, by Solarium, Shifting Sands furthers the desert theme by having merchants lay-out their wares under tented also raised around a strange partially built structure where sand really does flow like water, before whirling into some subterranean vortex above which hovers a mysterious, possibly alien, green crystal…

The sense of other worldliness is furthered by the great scalloped rock rising from one corner from the region, and from which yet more sand flows, dropping in long falls to the ground, while facing it from across the sands sits a golden sphere, supported in a wooden device, and within which strange powers appear to be stirring…

Wander Shifting sands and you will discover the delights of Pyewicket’s Myths, the masks and unique gifts of Illusion, the skins and shapes of ND/MD Skins & Shapes, find wings and things at Elvenbreath – and much more besides.

You can read an interview with Kayle in which he talks about the build on the Fantasy Faire website.
