Hi,
I used to post here way back in 2004, but then I kind of lost interest in the series for a couple of years. Now I'm back into it and I have a question that I can't seem to find an answer for. If anyone can help me, it's the group on this board!
My question is: were the Seven Deserts ever named or defined on the show? I was rewatching the episodes I have on tape (less than 20 I believe) and although the Seven Deserts are constantly mentioned, they are never described in detail. Did any episode ever go into them?
I've been trying to look it up myself, but I haven't been having any luck.
Thanks!

They never actually came out and named them all, but in "The Citadel" Mozenrath has a table that shows all seven deserts on it. In that episode they did mention that Quarkistan ("Bad Mood Rising"), the subterranean world of the al-Muddi, and Agrabah were all in the Seven Deserts, and in "Heads, You Lose" it's implied that Upanistan is also part of it. We don't know if the Land of the Black Sands is itself a part of the Seven Deserts, and they never say if Getzistan is or not. (I'm betting that it is.) So that just leaves one unaccounted for. (Parah-Moor? Ganastan, maybe?) _________________ "If only I could believe you. Perhaps I can! After all... you do bear the name of a flower." -- Arbutus |

Thank you so much to both of you! I apologize for posting a duplicate topic. I did a search, but the original thread didn't show up. This was something driving me buggy! I'm glad I'm not the only one the show left wondering.

Don't worry about it; the board's over three years old, we can't expect anyone to look back that far.  _________________ "If only I could believe you. Perhaps I can! After all... you do bear the name of a flower." -- Arbutus |
