The Nightsteed is Prince [[Jazan|Jazan's]] best friend, a zombified [[Uni]] who lost the abillity to fly due to it's tattered wings. While waiting for a Sakhmet princess to be old enough to marry Jazan, the two went out on adventures in the world for over 200 years, until the day arrived that the prophecy, presumably, could be broken.

==Plot summary==
===Lost Desert Plot===
:''Main Article: [[Lost Desert Plot]]''
During the LDP, the Nightsteed's non-cursed form, a blue Uni, was shown only once, in their debut into the comic. When Jazan cast the spell to make Sakhmet go into an alternate dimension, the Nightsteed's true form was revealed, as was Jazan's cursed form. When Nabile and Tomos first entered Qasala, the Nightsteed was told to hunt them down. When the plot was resolved and the cursed citizens of Qasala were returned to their original state, the Nightsteed did not change back. When Jazan asked why it had not changed back, the Nightsteed simply replied, "I don't know, maybe I had been cursed for too long."

The Lost Desert is one of the number of areas in [[Neopia]] which one can visit. In these worlds there are a large various activities. It has recently extended after the [[Lost Desert Plot]] to include the new sub-section called Qasala. The Lost Desert was discovered accidentally by [[Brucey B]] when chasing his Lucky Coin as part of the [[Brucey B and the Lucky Coin]] plot. He found it by travelling through the [[Haunted Woods]].

==The Kingdoms in the Lost Desert==
There are two cities in the current Lost Desert. There is the city of Sakhmet, capital of the most prosperous area of the Desert, and the newly rediscovered city of Qasala, which is in ruins but currently being repopulated. Shortly after its discovery, [[Dr. Frank Sloth]] invaded the Lost Desert and attacked Sakhmet, succeeding in taking the [[Sakhmetian]] palace before his forces were beaten back and the magic [[Staff of Alhasutek]] was destroyed.

===Sakhmet===
A stunning city of spires, domes and (unsurprisingly) sandstone. It was occupied by Dr Sloth when he invaded, and he managed to build a space-worthy escape pod into one of the towers. The [[Royal]] Palace of Sakhmet is one of the most stunning structures in the [[Neopian]] World.

The Sakhmetian Royal Family went through a time of turbulence after the Lost Desert was discovered. Following the poisoning of [[King Coltzan III]] in a move to usurp the throne, and the Royal Family held an investigation in which it drafted in the users to analyse the case, with the promised reward of items from the Royal Treasury (priceless Battle Scarabs). After the case was closed, a shrine was erected in the King's honour, in which was placed his Crown, which was said to be inhabited by the ghost of Coltzan. As the shrine was unveiled, however, it emerged that the cunning [[Malkus Vile]], a criminal gangmaster, had had the crown stolen - [[The Hunt for the Crown]] was on. Since the crown was returned, the Ghost of Coltzan very often makes himself known to Neopets who offer up mourning at his obelisk.

The Royal Family of Sakhmet went under another turbulent time, when the [[Princess Amira]] (who had inherited the throne from Coltzan III) received [[Prince Jazan]] IV of Qasala who demanded her hand in marriage based on some document of betrothment he had gathered from somewhere. He believed that marrying a Sakhmetain Princess would restore his lands and people, so when the Princess refused, he stole the City away with dark magic, where it became plagued by his demons. When he fell in love with [[Nabile]] (who could be seen as a princess of thieves, though her mother was Princess Neera so technically she is a real princess, as a matter of fact, she's Princess Amira's cousin), they married and Jazan restored Sakhmet, but his land did not prosper again and in fact the prophecy he fulfilled brought back to life his wicked, powermad father [[Razul]] who attacked the Lost Desert until he was stopped.

===Qasala===
A once-beautiful city that fell on hard times and is now mostly in ruins after being obliterated 200 years ago by a sandstorm. Amongst the ruined buildings lie caches of histories and magic. One of the more notable buildings is the '''Temple of 1,000 Tombs'''.

This once thriving city had a very well respected Royal Family, until Razul cursed his own people, and his own son, Jazan, and laid down a prophecy that would enable him to live again after his death. Both Razul and Jazan controlled considerable sorcery.

==Activities in the Lost Desert==
* The Lost Desert has a large number of 'dailies' - activities that can net large prizes and can be committed once in an allotted time (normally a day) for free or a small price.
** [[Fruit Machine]]
** [[Coltzan's Shrine]]
** Lost Desert Scratchcard Stall.
* There is also a large number of shops in the Lost Desert, such as
** Lady Osiri's Pottery Shop
** Battle Supplies and Desert Arms
** Sutek's Scrolls
** Qasalan Delights
* There are a number of games, including:
** Tug of War

==Yooyuball==
The Lost Desert's [[Altador Cup|Yooyuball]] team of 2006 had a lineup which could have done lots of damage in the tournament, but troubles in 2006 ([["Dirty" Navers]]' aggressive tactics and [[Derbi Azar]]'s holdout) made fans wary of them and if they would effectively play. They managed beat the [[Virtupets Space Station|Space Station]] in the first round, but were beaten by [[Roo Island]] in Round Two. When the time came to assign blame for the improbable loss, most of the criticism was aimed at defenseman [[Wyett Tuggins]], who was repeatedly put to shame by the brilliant play of Roo Island's [[Fenny Vail]]. As a result, journeyman [[Luvea Trivon]] took his place in the 2007 games.
