The Desolation is situated on the northwestern portion of Elona, connected to the Crystal Desert. It is one of the most hostile regions on Tyria due to its sulfurous sands. It is riddled with poisonous sulfur deserts and is home to many undead creatures and the great Junundu wurms. The land was once under the rule of Palawa Joko but following his imprisonment the undead armies have gone through schisms and formed smaller groups.

The Desolation was once part of the Crystal Sea. It was here that Abaddon was cast down by the other gods and banished into the Realm of Torment. His fall shattered and poisoned the land, turning it into what it is now. As the place where he was cast down, the Desolation is the part of Tyria closest to the Realm of Torment and it has begun to leak through and twist the already damaged lands.

Notes

• It is possible to completely run the entire desolation without the aid of a wurm. See the Desolation Run and possible builds to use.
• The Sulfurous Haze death effect that affects characters who step onto the sulfur areas does not incur death penalty and does not spoil Survivor progress.
• Various items from The Great Zehtuka can be found throughout the Desolation.
