Origin Story
传说在遥远的西域，有一片广袤无垠的沙漠，那里风沙肆虐，寸草不生。曾经有一支商队，为了寻找传说中的宝藏，深入这片渺无人烟的沙漠。他们跋山涉水，经历了常人难以想象的艰辛，但最终却一无所获，只留下满地的骸骨，诉说着这片沙漠的残酷与无情。后来，人们就把这片沙漠称作“死亡之海”，告诫世人不要轻易涉足这片渺无人烟之地。
Legend has it that in the distant Western Regions, there is a vast and boundless desert where sandstorms rage and no grass grows. Once, a caravan ventured deep into this uninhabited desert in search of a legendary treasure. They traversed mountains and rivers, enduring hardships beyond imagination, but ultimately found nothing, leaving behind only their bones to tell the tale of the desert’s cruelty and ruthlessness. Later, people called this desert the "Sea of Death", warning others not to easily venture into this uninhabited land.
