Gerudo Desert (Total War)

The Gerudo Desert is a region of Hyrule, an expansive desert wasteland home to some of Hyrule's greatest empires. Though barely able to sustain life, many have made a home in this harsh, merciless place.

Areas
Most areas of the Gerudo Desert are simple dunes or rocky cliffs, though several oases can be found across the vast expanse.

Ashinon
The fortified capital city of the Gerudo built at the center of the wider Gerudo Desert. Once one of the main powers in Hyrule, it lost much prestige after Ganon's curse killed all of their male population, but they are still a force to be reckoned with.

Haunted Wasteland
Supposedly cursed lands plagued by the spirits of the dead. The sacred grounds of the Spirit Temple stand against the cliffs to the far north-west, housing some of the Gerudo's most revered deceased, alongside a small oasis town where weary travellers rest.

Gerudo-Hylian Border
A small craggy area located on the border of Hyrule Field where a Gerudo settlement named Ayloch takes advantage of the nearby Zora River, albeit facing a minor threat from the River Zora.

Arbiter Grounds
Home to the dreaded, titular prison once used by the Ring of Warlords for mass executions. Now, with thousands of corpses festering under the sand and a Mirror of Twilight at its center, several dark forces have taken an interest in it.

Palu Dunes
Resting just south of Ayloch along the Gerudo-Hylian Border, Hasanadorf is a similarly craggy area with a corresponding settlement.

Toruma Dunes
The smallest desert area, where the ruins of Tantari are located. Several wild animals have found refuge from the desert winds here.

Pala Dunes
A vast expanse of desert that acts as the main trade route between the various desert civilisations. The Gerudo city of Paladorf marks the absolute center of the Gerudo Desert.

Parapa Desert
A largely deserted area of the desert, where the Gerudo Desert approaches the border of the Misery Mire. Gerudo Extremists have taken residence in the abandoned Mazuran city here.
