The Ahk-Ton Desert is a desert located in Kahndaq.
History
The extremist sect Onslaught used the Amon-Shu Caves,[1] located in the desert, to hold some schoolgirls they'd kidnapped. From the cave, Khem-Adam made an announcement via broadcast as to his motives.[2][3] One day, a military general working under Khem-Adam came to claim his promised wife, taking Mesi Natifah.[4] However, after almost being sexually assaulted, Mesi was able to escape and was found by The Canary and Nyssa al Ghul.[5] As Onslaught began to make sacrifices to the old gods, the Suicide Squad intervened. There was a number of casualties, but the group was disbanded and Khem-Adam was taken by The Canary and Nyssa to Nanda Parbat.[1]
