To the north of the Emerald Empire, there lies a mysterious land called the Burning Sands. In an extraordinary city known as the Jewel of the Desert, great empires clash and deadly intrigues abound. To the rest of the Empire the Burning Sands are a gaijin enigma, but as the exile of the Unicorn, and later the Scorpion have proven the destinies of these two lands are intertwined. Little do they realize that soon the dangers facing the people of the desert will also face the Clans of the Emerald Empire. The Burning Sands setting has exerted a powerful pull on the imagination of gamers since the 1998 debut of the Legend of the Burning Sands Collectible Card Game. As in the Legend of the Five Rings Roleplaying Game, this book allows you the chance to live out all-new adventures in a land of mystery and magic.
