This ship seems like it's been here for a long, long time: it's a dry, rusted hunk of a thing that creaks ominously with most steps. Not the most structurally-sound thing, that's for sure.

Luckily for Darin, there's plenty of scrap metal left on that ship's massive bones. Unluckily, it's bolted down pretty intensely, so it'll take some doing to get anything off, and it's quite heavy! Even worse, each panel he pries free makes the rest of the trip a little more dangerous. It'll be tough to get everything back to town, although certainly possible.

With his proficiency in exploration, Darin will be able to get down into some parts of the ship that are clearly buried in the desert but not yet full of sand. He'll find what seems to have been some kind of cargo hold, long since gone empty, although there are a few rusted, hollow crates and what looks like the decayed skeleton of a smaller ship. If there was a crew on this thing, either their quarters and the bridge are buried in the desert or entirely gone: there's no real evidence of logs.

This is a big, dangerous, structurally unsound ship with a lot of tubes that drop down into the earth and end abruptly in sand. One wrong or careless move could spell trouble and necessitate some kind of daring rescue.
