The Dunes West is the western realm of The Dunes, a 40×40 map accessible directly from The Pond with no level requirement. King Scorpia rules this realm. It is home to three critical NPCs — a blacksmith, a potion crafter, and a cosmetic weaver — making it the hub for all Dunes crafting and services.

Camp Gates

Safe camps have **one-way exits**:

• Walking out throws you 5 tiles clear in the direction you're walking
• Darker tiles mark the boundary line
• Re-entering camps is completely free
• Cannot stand in doorway (prevents King Scorpia cheese)

Camps are retreat points, not safe zones for prolonged farming.
