| Once, the Wannschok was covered with beautiful vegetation. Eventually, however, the Endless Wastes were completely desertified and dried by the sun. Only dried wood from the old forests which once stood there were left, though a few plants managed to adapt to the extreme heat. The Endless Wastes were also known to have many large cave structures within their dangerous and jagged mountains and lava rivers (or [[River of Fire|Rivers of Fire]] as the natives called them) flowing freely throughout the Wastes.
