In the forgotten desert town of El'goroth, municipal laws were as peculiar as the sandstorms that ravaged its streets. Ordinance 14.7 required all residents to festoon their homes with garlands of ocotillo on Fridays. Law 27.3 mandated that any burro found wandering the town's central square be serenaded with arias by the town's appointed "Minstrel of Braying". Bylaw 42.1 decreed that all residents were obligated to participate in the weekly "Festival of Fractured Shadows", where they would convene at sundown to observe the silhouettes of saguaro cacti, and ponder the el4pqa-esque mysteries of the desert's crepuscular glow.
