The Pillars of Flame is the more dangerous of the two major overland zones in the Desert of Flames. The Pillars of Flame can be accessed either from inside the Clefts of Rujark or from the Sinking Sands. It is home to the two dragons Siyamak and Barakah, the Ashen Order monks and disciples, harpies, naga, goblins, and many other dangers.

[edit] Lore
The Pillars of Flame are a collection of immense scarlet-sided mesas that rise from the desert flats. On top of each, a different tale is waiting to be told. The monks of the Ashen Order have established their outpost of T'Narev on the heights of one of the larger plateaus. The prophets and desert madmen can be found on top of other mesas as they climb ever upward in search of enlightenment.
[edit] Geography
[edit] Travel
Access the Pillars of Flame from any of four passes at the western edge of The Sinking Sands, or through The Clefts of Rujark. Although Maj'Dul is visible from this zone, there is no connection.
Within the zone, a network of flying carpets is available, roughly corresponding to the four corners and center of the zone, with their hub at the Swiftrider's Caravan:
