$\«-¨¨¨¨¨¨ the desert of kirugu serves this ¨¨¨¨¨¨-«\$

¶@%$\«-¨¨¨ would remember drinking (which is also ¨¨¨-«\$%@¶

¶@%$\«-¨¨¨ people are known to suffer injuries ¨¨¨-«\$%@¶
@%$\«-¨¨¨¨ from being still in unfavourable ¨¨¨¨-«\$%@
%$\«-¨¨¨¨¨ climates for too long, sometimes to the ¨¨¨¨¨-«\$%
$\«-¨¨¨¨¨¨ point of death. another danger is ¨¨¨¨¨¨-«\$
\«-¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ actually locomotion of the body... ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨-«\
$\«-¨¨¨¨¨¨ walking around is still somewhat ¨¨¨¨¨¨-«\$
%$\«-¨¨¨¨¨ possible after losing sight, which have ¨¨¨¨¨-«\$%

##¶@%$\«-¨ lastly, albeit very rare, it's possible ¨-«\$%@¶##
