Vana'diel is host to a wide variety of terrains, so it should come as no surprise that there are also deserts there as well. The island of Kuzotz, once home to the Galka, is a giant desert. Cape Teriggan and the nearby Valley of Sorrows are also desert areas, accessible only via tunnels from the island of Kuzotz or the Valkurm Dunes.
