Encyclopedia : S : SE : SEA : Sea of Dust (Greyhawk)
In the Dungeons and Dragons World of Greyhawk campaign setting, the Sea of Dust is a vast desert of powdery grey ash bound by a number of mountain ranges, including the Sulhauts to the north, and Hellfurnaces to the east.
History
This great basin was formerly home to the ancient Suel Imperium, a nation of fertile lands extending some one-thousand miles west and south, before it was destroyed by the Rain of Colorless Fire in -422 CY. The Rain of Colorless Fire was sent by the Baklunish Empire to the north, in retaliation for the Invoked Devastation which destroyed all but the remnants of that empire.References
