   Summary

   Regulus Black only wanted a quiet trip home after a business event abroad. Instead, a sightseeing drive through the Sahara turns into a crash that leaves him stranded, injured, and alone in one of the most unforgiving places on earth.

   With no wand, no way home, and the desert shifting around him, Regulus is forced to survive flash floods, sandstorms, venom, traffickers, and the terrifying discovery that his own magic is far stronger without a wand than anyone ever taught him it could be.

   By the time he makes it back to Hogwarts, scarred, changed, and carrying a skateboard like a trophy, Regulus is no longer the boy who left. And everyone else is about to realise it too.
