Formerly an island of terror, Pharazia is a domain of the Amber Wastes, ruled by Diamabel.[1][2] Like the rest of the Amber Wastes, the majority of Pharazia is unforgiving desert interrupted far too sporadically by oases that provide water to the realm's mucky, crocodile infested rivers. Harsh like the scorching desert is Pharazian society, for it is governed by the austere, purity-obsessed laws of Diamabel enforced by his scourge-wielding confessors and the wrath of the Black Herald. Only the desert nomads led by Sheikh Allahn el Rashaan defy Diamabel, though they have stern customs and harsh punishment systems of their own.[5][6]
