The Infinite Desert is a desert in the World of Daventry (KQGS).

Background[]

In his old age, King Graham wished to adventure there before he died.

It lies roughly north and west of Daventry (KQGS), near/beyond the Great Mountains (KQGS) (and western edge of the Eastern mountains). It lies between Serenia, Llewdor and Eldritch. The tropical desert oasis of Tanalore (KQGS) lies within the southwestern edge of the desert near the sea and the Enchanted Isles (KQGS) and Neptune's Kingdom (KQGS). Tamir (KQGS) apparently lies roughy south west of the desert (roughly towards the direction of sea where whales like to congregate near the shore.

Locations[]


Behind the scenes[]

This is likely a reference to the Endless Deserts from the previous games. They are locations that appear in KQ3 (Llewdor/Tanalore), KQ5 (Serenia), and KQ7 (Eldritch/Etheria) in the original series.

Geography in Tanalore resembles yellow sands, reddish sandstone of the desert cliffs in Endless Desert, and the plantlife of the oasises of KQ5.

It is not clear if Graham actually had visited the main desert proper previously. However, he did visit an endless desert while rescuing his family in the original KQ5. It's not known the Graham in the reboot universe necessarily visited the desert however. He at least does visit a tropical desert oasis during his adventures in Tanalore. In one path of Chapter 4 the Ice Palace (KQGS) (Ice Tower) is placed in the mountains on northern edge of desert where Tanalore is located, roughly in the north eastern edge of the land. The Great Mountains/Eastern Mountains is located there.
