Synopsis

The chapter explains that 'dungeons' are created by sandworms in the desert, which mages use for research. It introduces the possibility that a sandstorm is the result of a sand mage's actions, which is connected to a character named Eugene. The protagonist then is swallowed by a sandworm during the sandstorm, while he struggles to find an escape using wind and blink magic. The chapter ends with a character explaining the dangers of being eaten by a sandworm, which lacks excretory organs, so escape isn't easy.
