# Interlude: The Stolen Barya The second Interlude takes the adventure to the Vasteri Desert. [[Sekhema Asala]], invested with a sacred role, must perform the “Gift of Water” ritual when the stars align. But the Selkari, guardians of the sacred water, have disappeared. Players must find them, understand who disrupted the ritual, and face new adversaries. Between exploring desert areas, fighting new bosses, and discovering ancient secrets, this Interlude offers a journey steeped in mysticism.
