Northern Oasis
The Northern Oasis was an oasis located in the 'Aqarquf Dunes east of Anbar and north of Baghdad. It was situated atop an Isu chamber which housed a number of Isu weaponry and armor.
History[]
In the 860s, the Order of the Ancients became aware of the existence of the Isu vault beneath the oasis, and assigned Al-Ghul to set up an excavation site to find a way into the chamber,[1] unearthing several mysterious shards from the ruins on top of it.[2] While an entrance into the vault was not found, Al-Ghul demanded that the shards be given to the Tha'abeen for protection, as the Order believed they were connected to the chamber. When the workers at the oasis failed to make much progress, Al-Ghul wrote a letter and asked for more workers to be reassigned to the excavation site further south.[1]
Later, the Hidden One Basim Ibn Ishaq also traveled to the oasis at the request of Nehal, who claimed to have seen a symbol there similar to the one on the Memory Seal stolen by Basim from the Winter Palace in Anbar. The Hidden One was able to access the vault after swimming through the caverns beneath the oasis and saw the Isu weaponry and armor sealed behind a barrier. Eventually, after acquiring all the shards from the Tha'abeen, Basim returned to the vault and placed the shards in their corresponding pedestals, deactivating the barrier and allowing the Hidden One to claim the Isu equipment for himself.[2]
