According to NF Manuscripts, there is a hero called Razah. Who, from what i understand, is not human at all but a being from somewhere call The Mists.

Now is the mists an afterlife place? I'm not sure. But could it be him that waiting for you in Desolation. I'm just guessing, don't take my words for it.

I believe you ride inside the wurm. That's how you are protected from the poisonous atmosphere.

Ive never noticed him before, even during my exploring.
But anyway, I just went to talk to him (I have nightfall) and he said the exact same thing.

well, i think that you need to get wurm before entering into that place..the desolation i mean..to get a wurm, you need to do quests for the queen wurm and get her favour..then she will grant you a wurm to ride with to get through the sulfur/acid in the desolation..

Could be used for a quest/future quest. It would not be a gateway to Elona because all you have to do is take the boat to Elona.

He had the key installed, but it wasn't "live". This was at around 9 pm pdt and nightfall didn't go live till 10:30. No idea what it's all about really, but yeah i do know it goes to the poison place. I also know you get to "drive" the worms around, with thier heads sticking out of the sand.

Yes, the Desolation is the Worm area.

Also, this kinda leads me to believe that there is going to be a time when quests will be present for people who own both Prophecies and Nightfall that will take place inside the Crystal Desert.

Interesting, I wonder if there are more areas like this or if there are more npcs in tyria...perhaps in the wilds area or mineral springs perhaps....this makes me want to re-explore all the areas again.

I think you need a wurm for this... because they can traverse the sulpurous planes.

You take a quest to impress the Queen of the Wurms. Once you do, she and her kind will grant you access through the Desolation. You 'ride' the wurms inside their mouths. Basically, your toon becomes a Wurm.
