Land of Xzar

Sacred Savanah
Amidst the ancient sands and beneath an ethereal orange sky that seems to hold the echoes of bygone battles, there lies a land born anew from the ashes of war and destruction. Here, in this sacred Savannah, nature and history intertwine in a delicate dance of resilience and regeneration.
As the sun dips low on the horizon, casting a warm, amber glow over the arid landscape, the land seems to exhale a collective sigh—a testament to the trials it has endured and the hope that now stirs within its depths. The scorched earth, once ravaged by conflict, now bears the promise of rebirth, as tender shoots of green push their way through the barren soil, reclaiming their rightful place in the sun.
In this landscape of renewal, a sanctuary arises—a haven for both endangered wildlife and priceless relics of antiquity. Here, beneath the watchful gaze of the ancient pyramids, elephants roam freely, their majestic forms silhouetted against the vibrant hues of the setting sun. Lions, once symbols of power and conquest, now find solace in the shadows of crumbling temples, their fierce spirits tempered by the wisdom of ages past.
But it is not only the animals that find sanctuary in this sacred land. Nestled amidst the dunes lie ancient ruins and forgotten tombs, relics of a civilization lost to time. Carved from the very bedrock of the earth, these monuments stand as silent witnesses to the ebb and flow of history, their weathered facades bearing the scars of countless generations.
Here, among the whispers of the wind and the shifting sands, the past is preserved and honored—a reminder of the enduring legacy of those who came before. As night falls and the stars emerge like jewels scattered across the heavens, the land seems to pulse with quiet, timeless energy—a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the eternal cycle of life, death, and rebirth.

It took me about 3 years and 3 grids to finally get this castle built. Starborne Keep will take some time to explore. There is so much to see in The Land Of Xzar, plan to stay awhile. Please, don't just stand there and cam. You won't hear the sounds of the land and you won't see the details. You can get a notecard with Landmarks to help you get around at the landing. Use them, walk around, explore. If I am on, say hi. Strangers are only friends you have not met yet.

When you come to visit, enable a shared environment and walk around as the whole region is parceled into a dozen or more places...I lost count. :) Even the rivers are parceled so they have their name in the viewer when you take a raft down them or cross over them on a bridge. I have made EEPs and a lot of the parcels are different so the skies will change as you walk along. They could have been changed from your last visit because I am always messing with the skies and making new ones. Or you could look up in the sky and jump on a dragon as some circle the whole region, but sadly the skies will remain the same because of where the prim is that they are attached to. But if you see something of interest, you can jump off to explore, and the sky will change. I have a new Dragon that you can navigate on your own as well, but he needs a little work. I hope you will enjoy The Land Of Xzar. See you soon!

All are me: Lagniappe grid, Genesis grid, and Neverworld grid. I can't believe I didn't crash. How many of your avatars using the same Firestorm viewer can you put in one place? I have a couple more I think I might try to get in as well. Yeah...Ima a risk taker. :)

Are you looking for some treasure? An experience? Something to do on a lazy afternoon?
Use Shared Environment for the best experience. Have sound up. Graphics as high as your rig can take.

Now hop on a Dragon and come to visit The Land Of Xzar and explore the unique town of Devil's Fork. This is one of the gates that will get you into Devil's Fork.
WELCOME!!!
Take your time to explore this unique, one-of-a-kind build. Except for one or three, all the buildings in the town were built by me over time, across several grids I have called home at one time or another.

Thank the Gods for suitcases and transfer abilities so I didn't lose my creations! Grids come and go so protect your assets!! You won’t find cookie-cutter buildings here that you see everywhere else. Some were built with a plan and some had Magic infused in them because I had no idea where I was going with it, I just started throwing down prims and hoped for the best! :)

Anyway, if you have some time and enjoy new experiences, come explore the town and see what treasures are inside the shops. Most items are free to copy including many of my original creations. There is a Magik Shop that is a must-see! The movie theater (not my build) has a working screen to watch movies that I did make. Good for a Date Night!

The 50-60s Shell Station is an old build and I had to make most of the textures for it, so that may be of interest to check out. Be sure and explore the Cathedral of the Ancients and the Robotics office building across from it. Don’t cam, walk inside, enjoy exploring. Hear the sounds.

To relax, have a drink at one of several bars in town with your friends and listen to the sounds of the town..or hit play on the music. I highly recommend Charlie's Bar, but don't bring a crowd as it is a hole-in-the-wall sort of joint. Literally.

I found the Industrial part of town a bit of a challenge. It was fun to make most of the buildings and you want to have your sound up as there is a lot going on in that part of town! I think it was harder for me to build as I am the least familiar with that sort of industry. Plus “stuff” isn’t as easy to find. Let me know what you think.

If you have not been to The Land Of Xzar, why not? Today I am suggesting (and inviting) everyone who cares to visit, to check out Devil's Fork. But the land has so much much more for you to discover...

If you made it this far, THANKS for reading, and I hope you will enjoy exploring Devil's Fork as much as I enjoyed building it. Let me know what you think of my little town.

One of the things I love about Devil's Fork is that it is a unique town. Almost every building in the town was built by me, for better or worse. :) What you see here is one side of a 4-store block with a 5th shop on one end. This is an old build I recently remodeled. These are my favorite shops in the town, Star Magik Has a few things made by me, but mostly tons of things I have found in OS and you can get a copy of most things in the shop. The perfect destination for your magical needs, so come visit and stay awhile. If you like The Land Of Xzar, I hope you will consider dropping a review. Have a Magikal Day/Night and see you soon!

I want to thank everyone that came to my Grand Opening. Thanks to all of you, it was a fun party. I appreciate the support and new friendships I made. Our total count was 41...me being the 1. :) A special thanks to Lavia and Unadecal for helping me spread the word, and Una especially for being there to make sure things ran smoothly (they did) and always being supportive of my work. Well, Lavia is always supportive too. Love you both! I also want to thank Metal Tango for providing the music, including her own music. She has her own band in RL and if we can ever talk her into performing inworld...she would shoot to total "Stardom"! She is that GOOD!
The Land Of Xzar is now open for visitors so please come any time and explore. I have spent the past 6 months rebuilding for the 5th time!! Now I get OARs, so this should be the last build, though you are never truly finished, I think. Like my castle. It is like the Winchester house in CA. It keeps growing. The whole region is divided into parcels, including the rivers so they have their own parcel and names. They all have their own EEP as well. There are a few parcels I am still working on, but the rest is pretty much done. Be sure and have your viewer set to shared environment and have sound on as there is sound everywhere. There IS music, but you are missing out if that is what you are listening to rather than the sounds of the land, though I am still working on adding more as there are still some silent pockets. Don't be afraid to say hi if you see me and I promise I won't bother you as I want you to enjoy exploring. The Land Of Xzar is the visual of my upcoming novel by the same name. It should be out by the end of the year. Thanks again to everyone that came. You all ROCK!!!
