Around the fifth day into tracking Ashtraz in the desert, and Gary could tell that we were getting close, as it was getting easier to catch her.
In that time we had an encounter with a Dune Worm.
I was much stronger than last time, I also restrained my strength so as to not kill it last time. So killing it was a piece of cake. I finished it in one shot with just my fire alone.
I didn't bother taking its corpse into my storage space either, since that would take too much time. I only incinerated the head of the worm after all. And most of its body was still underground, so pulling it out would only be a waste of time.
That was the biggest hurdle that we faced, but it wasn't something that impeded us much at all.
Another two days passed after that and Gary could track Ashtraz even easier.
Gary was a rather large Dragon-Born with a unique constitution. His body apparently had heightened senses which surpassed the average for most Dragon-Born, nearly akin to actual Dragon-Kin.
