Lost caravan – why?

[Roleplay event: Saturday, 21th of January, 1 pm SLT, 9 pm gmt]
A large caravan from the Oasis of Klima has disappeared without a trace. However, there are no reports that the Kurii have reappeared. There must be another reason. What’s particularly strange is that a few lesser kaiila from this caravan showed up at the Oasis of Lame Kaiila, but they weren’t carrying salt or saddles. We need to know the reason for this and will search the desert up to the exchange point of Klima.
We were attacked by a group of bandits near the exchange point of Klima. The fight went on for a long time as we had to force our way through the rock gate under heavy fire. We took prisoners, there were numerous wounded. The bound bandits were taken to the salt mines of Klima.
A high-ranking delegation from the Oasis of two Scimitars marched with us to Klima and supported us in the fight. Negotiations started in Klima about the accession of the Oasis of two Scimitars to the Southern Trade Alliance (STA) and about a cooperation between the Gorean Merchant Association and the STA. The negotiations lasted into the night.

Dangerous Salt Trade
Tuesday, November 22nd, 2022
Announcement: Salt sale for everyone for just one day! (29th of October) Location: Exchange Point of the Oasis of Klima (NOT Klima itself). Start: Gates of the Silver Stone Desert Oasis
Not all of you will be able to find the path to Klima or to reach the exchange point! It will be extremely dangerous! All men should be armed! Female merchants should ask for the protectoon of men.
All merchants of Gor welcome! You will be able to buy a reasonable amount of authentic red and yellow salt from Klima and a certificate. To get to the exchange point you will have to find persons who have been in Klima before. Ask the people you will meet near the gates!
Very few Goreans know the way to the Oasis of Klima. Anyone who draws maps of the desert will be killed. The Salt Ubar and his warriors (Guards of the Dunes) control the trade in salt from Klima. Their names are not known, they are always veiled or wear a mask.
Many Goreans from all regions gathered at the gates of the Oasis of Silver Stones. The caravan marched at night because the temperature in the desert is almost unbearable during the day. Some masked warriors seemed to know the way, the others joined them. The Tahari is dangerous, often you can see bleached bones of animals or people.
A few experienced STA merchants had marched to the Exchange Point days beforehand and were preparing to sell salt.
According to the rumors spread by the caravan leaders, the caravan encountered three Kurii who attacked immediately. The men defended themselves, some of them taking a detour to lead the women and the kaiila to a safer route. The Kurii were repelled. There were a few injured, but the men finally arrived at the Exchange Point of the Oasis of Klima.
The Kurii seemed to have disappeared, but no one knows where and if they would return…
Some merchants who are members of the Southern Trade Alliance marched from the Exchange Point to the Oasis of Klima to meet the Salt Ubar there.
It seems that the remotest reaches of the Tahari can once again be traversed with guides, but who knows how long this treacherous peace will last…

Beware of the Steeltower!
Tuesday, September 20th, 2022
Strong sandstorms destroy the paths to the Oasis of Klima very often. Even the Guards of the Dunes had trouble finding their way. For several months, no salt caravan has arrived from the oasis, There are rumors that entire caravans have even disappeared. The STA leaders had decided to equip an expedition to reach the oasis of Klima. Armed men lead the caravan and scout the terrain.
The caravan to the Oasis of Klima prepares for for the march at the gates of Cartassa. The leaders give final orders.
A guard of the dunes riding a kaiila explores the terrain, as yet no danger seems imminent
After a long march, the steel tower that some caravan leaders had reported about suddenly appears. A spooky being runs towards the caravan and lets out an incomprehensible roar.
The men draw their weapons and prepare for a fight. A second Kur appears behind the first one. The experienced caravan leaders try to placate the Kurri with crates of raw meat. Some run behind the dunes and try to avoid the steel tower.
The Kurri are irritated by the smell of the meat. Everyone run towards the oasis of Klima. The Kurii attack the stragglers, there are some wounded. Luckily nobody gets killed.
The wounded are treated in the infirmary of the Oasis of Klima.
