The hottest place in the Beast World burns in the heart of the Beylik desert. The winds whip dry sand into the face of any doomed wanderer. Sun ignites the fur in daylight and darkness freezes the night. No beast or brethren in their right mind would ever consider wandering so far from any source of water.
So naturally, this is an important place in Aubadism.
Bull-headed Aubadians lower their heads and charge into the Sun Bull Dunes, carrying nothing but a warpick and morningstar. They seek a black shaft ramming into the sky, as obstinate as they are.
A pillar of black sapphire sits at the spot in the Beast World most like the sun itself. Those who reach it enter a trance of sunblood, hacking at the pillar with the weapons they carry. Aubadians who demonstrate themselves to their god return with a piece of the pillar. Everyone else fades away, leaving nothing behind but a sun-bleached skeleton to decorate the dunes for no one.
