The '''Kerla''' is an area of desert in the center of Dayside on [[Taldain]]. It lies to the north of [[Lossand]], to the east of [[Kerzta]], and is separated from [[Nor'Tallon]], [[Seevis]], and [[Denka]] by a mountain range. It contains the [[Mastrell's Path]] and the mountain [[KraeDa]].{{map ref|Dayside}}

The '''Kerla''' is any region of desert on the [[Dayside]] of [[Taldain]] where sand is moderately deep, [[dorim vine]]s are close to the surface, and both flora and fauna are plentiful under the sand; but sandlings cannot grow to dangerous sizes because both the sand depth and dorim vines limit their growth.{{book ref|ws|part=ars}} Most of [[Kerzta]] is considered Kerla, along with regions to the north of [[Lossand]], and around Mount [[KraeDa]].{{map ref|Dayside}} The Kerla is not considered a desert by Daysiders since dorim vines are found there.{{book ref|ws|3|review=yes}}
