The Legend of the Desert Sandbride presents a tale centering on a young woman who is doomed by a witch to roam the Sahara Desert as a result of her decision to flee from an arranged marriage. Pained at the thought of spending her life with Odoma, the tribes strongest and most fierce warrior, Tula runs away from her village on the day of her wedding. In despair, the bride encounters an old woman who leaves her with a hopeless future. The witch bears a grudge against Tulas father, compelling her to transform the girl into a sand being whose job is to provide water to those in need until true love rescues her. Meanwhile the king of the Noo Noos tribe decides to send his son Malik out to seek the Tree of Plenty to save his people from a great famine. Along the way, Malik encounters the spirit of the desert. His journey through the hot desert requires him to overcome challenging obstacles. He meets the Sandbride. His initial reaction to her appearance causes her to run away. Two mystical creatures are summoned to travel with Malik. Although Maliks travel seems dim, he eventually secures Tulas release, and she returns to her original state after the witchs evil deeds result in her demise. In the conclusion of The Legend of the Desert Sandbride, the couple is greeted by sounds of celebration as Maliks journey seems to bring about revitalization of his people as well as of Tulas.
