Another March to Klima and the Fight with the Torvaldslanders
Saturday, April 19th, 2025
A group of heavily armed men gathered at the Oasis of Lame Kaiila. Two important figures had to be escorted to the labyrinth near the ruins of the Oasis of Mandara.
Waiting there were the Initiate of Isfahan and a masked man with bodyguards, who, however, refused to reveal his identity. Only a few knew who he was. The expedition soon set out, with scouts leading the way.
It was difficult to get into the underground labyrinth, but they knew from the last time where the room the initiate wanted to investigate was, and there were still torches hanging on the walls.
Some very bold warriors were impatient and marched ahead towards the Exchange Point of Klima, while everyone else was still in the labyrinth. Unfortunately, the rumors were confirmed: they were surprised by a group of very well-armed men. A group of Torvaldslanders had gotten lost in the desert. They overheard a caravan leader at the En’Kara Fair boasting that the exchange point at the Oasis of Klima could be easily reached. The Torvaldslanders arrived there by chance, but don’t know how to get back. The battle was lost, but the Northmen only wanted to find a guide who would lead them out of the desert.
When the other members of the expedition reached the battlefield, the misunderstanding was cleared up. Since the Oasis of Klima was not far, they agreed to refresh themselves there — the Torvaldslanders would have been unable to find their way if they had come near the Exchange Point again.
The men cooled her wounds and quenched her thirst in the T’Zshal’s Inn of Klima.
Massacre near the ruins of the Oasis of Mandara
Friday, December 6th, 2024
Urgent message to all leaders of the STA, sealed and encrypted:
Two caravans are missing! A caravan leader who was on his way from the Oasis of Lame Kaiila to the Klima Exchange Point has returned: he saw skeletons in several Kaiila, salt blocks lying around and equipment. From now on, no more caravans are allowed to go to Klima.
The Southern Trade Alliance is currently equipping an expedition. All men who can carry weapons are requested to join. We will meet at the main plaza of the Oasis of Lame Kaiila.
Find those responsible for this cowardly attack and arrest them! We must find out whether they have allies!
The armed units of the STA also searched the area around the Kasbah, but nothing was found at first. They approached every rock formation with extreme caution.
Unfortunately, the remains of the caravan and some luggage were found near the ruins of the Oasis of Mandara. Numerous skeletons of the kaiila were bleaching in the desert sand. Shortly afterwards, the bandits who were responsible for this massacre and who were hiding attacked…
After a long and fierce battle, the villains were overpowered. The prisoners were taken to the salt mines of Klima…. Our fighters marched to the Oasis of Klima, where they refreshed and strengthened themselves.
The Treasure of the lost Oasis of Mandara
Tuesday, October 29th, 2024
A caravan leader found a half-weathered scroll in the ruins. It apparently came from the oasis of Mandara, which was abandoned many years ago. The Scribes were able to decipher it:
“The water was less and our fresh water is too salty, the lake dried up and the plants died. So we had to act quickly so that our water resources are rich, the most important work was the mine of diamonds, to help all also had to free and remove the diamond mine. The guards were very attentive, it’s not a diamond could be stolen. Crated and heavily guarded they were taken to a secret location in gor and from there packed in smaller boxes and distributed to gor and at secret locations that no one except the Pasha will ever find hidden. All that could take the people of Mandara, they travel with the name, the only one left behind Ausgetrockneter and salinized lake with abandoned settlement Mandara. Verwart the Home Stone well and ventured on a journey into the uncertain to find a new Fertile soil, should arise where the largest city, seen gor ever, has it should, it is said like a tower up to the sky and space for hundreds of thousands Goreans and slaves, healers, warriors and all occupations in which it is to be Gor.
Let the priest-kings protect us on our journey and leave quickly find a fertile place. With plenty drinkable water and a Grand Floral”
The caravan leaders tell each other that the gold of the oasis of Mandara Gold is still hidden near the ruins, but no one has found it yet.
A large group of heavily armed fighters gathered in the Oasis of Lame Kaiila because they had heard of bandits following caravans.
We set off when the blazing sun had almost set. Since some of us knew the way to the exchange point in Klima, we didn’t have to search for the way between the dunes.
We followed the caravan leaders’ instructions and after a long search we found a few ruins and a water hole far away from the known paths. A treasure chest with a key and several gold bars were found hidden deep in the sand.
But as we had feared, we met bandits at the Exchange Point. They had followed a caravan, but did not know the way back. After a hard fight, we lost, were all tied up and locked in the buildings of the Exchange Point. Since the bandits did not know about the treasure, they could not steal it. They even left the weapons behind. After a while, warriors came directly from the Oasis of Klima and freed everyone.
Some were wounded and had to be supported. But after a difficult march we reached the salt mines of Klima.
In T’Zshals’s Inn, we discussed how to proceed next time. We probably need more warriors to make the routes to Klima really safe.
Fight for the Salt!
Wednesday, July 24th, 2024
[Roleplay Plot 20th of July 2024]: March to Klima – Meet at the Kasbah, fight for the salt!
Start: Oasis of Lame Kailla, main place or Oasis of Red Rock
We need you all! All men must be armed. Be prepared to fight! The last caravan from the Oasis of Klima lost three Kaiila in the quicksand. The salt sacks are somewhere near the Exchange Point, but we don’t know where.
Two caravans are meeting at the Kasbah today. One caravan starts in the Oasis of Lame Kaiila, the others in the Oasis of Red Rock. With the permission of the Salt Ubar, everyone can keep the salt sacks if they find their way from Red Rock to the Exchange Point of Klima. Or do you want to fight to see who gets near the Exchange Point first?
Two men from the Oasis of Two Scimitars were the first to found bags of salt near the Exchange Point of the Oasis of Klima, lying next to a Kaiila carcass, half hidden by the sand.
The caravan was attacked near the Kasbah of Salt Ubar, not far from the Red Rock oasis. There was a fierce battle with many wounded. Rarius Yuroki later had to be treated in the infirmary of the Oasis of Lame Kaiila because several arrows were stuck in his arm.
The remaining lost salt sacks were also found later.
A new Salt Ubar!
Wednesday, July 24th, 2024
A caravan and a group of armed men will gather at the Oasis of Lame Kaiila and march to Klima. You have to be ready for anything. Rumours has it that an important ceremony will take place.
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.
Wait for the guards of the Dunes somewhere at the Oasis of Lame Kaiila. They will find you and lead the way.
Beware of quicksand! If you lose your way, you can be lost! Just follow the guide. [Roleplaxy platz “March to Klima 31th of May 2024]
The warriors of the desert and a member of the white caste arrived at the Oasis of Klima after a long and arduous march. There they were met by a mysterious man protected by two masked bodyguards.
It is said that exquisite food and even Falarian wine were provided.
According to what we hear from usually well-informed circles, a new Salt Ubar was enthroned. He had to ensure the loyalty of the warriors and the merchants. Only selected representatives of the Southern Trade Association (STA) attended the ceremony.
What will be the fate of the prisoners?

Exchange Point of the Oasis of Klima retaken
Sunday, January 14th, 2024
As a scout reported, the bandits were still at Exchange Point in the Oasis of Klima. They were only able to get there because they bribed a corrupt caravan leader. Therefore, the last caravan of the Southern Trade Alliance to Klima, which was, as always, under the patronage of Salt Ubar, was surprised and had to retreat after a fierce battle.
The bandits lived on the supplies that were actually intended for the oasis. When they ran out, they set everything on fire.
The heavily armed STA caravan once again set out from the Oasis of the Lame Kaiila to retake Klima’s Exchange Point. They had to rely on the help of the dune guards because only a few people knew the way and the dunes often blocked it. Anyone who doesn’t know their way around the desert will quickly get lost and die.
The magnificent panorama of the dunes did not hide the fact that the march would be dangerous. The caravan’s Kaiila and a guide had already marched ahead and were waiting a few pasangs from the Exchange Point.
After a long time and after several sandstorms slowed the march, the red rocks near Exchange Point came into view. This area is particularly dangerous because the treacherous quicksand sometimes covers the path and you have to walk in it up to your knees.
The caravan came under fire near the Exchange Point and several people were wounded. However, the STA warriors were in the majority and charged forward. After a long and very fierce battle, the bandits fled into the desert.
The warriors pursued the bandits, who apparently didn’t know exactly where to flee. Those who were only slightly wounded remained at Exchange Point and put out the fires.
It didn’t take long for the bandits to be overwhelmed. They were completely lost and had to turn back several times because they got caught in quicksand. However, the Guards of the Dunes and the STA fighters knew the area very well. The bandits were tied up and disarmed.
Meanwhile, the Kaiila of the caravan had reached the Exchange Point of the Oasis of Klima. Food supplies were increased and water barrels were filled.
The prisoners were not taken to the salt mines, but were left to the STA’s allies. The wounded marched to the Oasis of Red Rock. One of the fighters was from there and knew the way.
In the Oasis of the Red Rock there is a very large and well-equipped infirmary. Three members of the Green Caste were already waiting there, including Lady Sabina, who also runs the clinic in Isfahan and the Infirmary of the Oasis of the Lame Kaiila, and her student. The wounded were adequately cared for and some of them had to remain in bed for a few more days.
Exchange Point of the Oasis of Klima
Sunday, January 7th, 2024
The Exchange Point of the Oasis of Klima has been looted and set on fire by bandits. Almost all buildings are destroyed. There are still food reserves in the oasis. But the situation will become critical if no caravans can deliver more.
The Salt Ubar and the Southern Trade Alliance are planning a heavily armed expedition very soon.
One of the major sites within the Tahari for obtaining salt are the brine pits of Klima. Klima is hidden deep within the dune country and its location is closely guarded. It is located roughly southeast of the Oasis of the Battle of Red Rock and the Salt Ubar’s kasbah. Similar pits exist in other parts of the dune country and their location is equally as secret.
Kaiila are not permitted at Klima, even for the guards. There is a well there but no other water for about a thousand pasangs. Though Klima has its own water supply, it is dependent for food on caravans. Such food is delivered to scouted areas some pasangs from the compounds where salt slaves will retrieve them up later.
Dangerous Tahari
Sunday, May 21st, 2023
Sunrise at the Oasis of Lame Kaiila. A caravan is getting ready to march to the Oasis of Klima. What surprises will the next few days bring?
The caravan leaders decided to march in two groups. The first group had to protect the initiate. It consisted of merchants from Venna and warriors and fighting slaves from Isfahan. The second group marched along with warriors from the Oasis of Scimitars.
After a long march, the first group reached the area around the exchange point of the Oasis of Klima.- She was attacked there by a Kur. A fierce fight ensued.
After the arrival of the second group, the Kur was captured. The initiate was unharmed and was guided through the salt mines of Klima.
In a secret place in the oasis of Klima gathered the leaders of the Southern Trade Alliance, the warriors of the desert and the leaders of the caravan. A man some already knew was proclaimed the new Salt Ubar. The initiate held a small ceremony and gave his blessing.
On the way back, the caravan got caught in violent sandstorms and was torn into several groups. Luckily everyone found their way back.
March to the Oasis of Klima, reloaded
Sunday, May 21st, 2023
Belnend approaching the Oasis of Lame Kaiila.
A group of merchants and warriors from the town of Belnend marched with our caravan to the Oasis of Klima. Although they have done this several times, they need a guide: The dunes in the desert are “wandering” and changing their size all the time. Only a few desert dwellers can find the path.
Although we were attacked again, we reached our goal. However, some were wounded and required treatment by the physician in the infirmary.
