The '''Yucca Desert''' is a vital area in {{vg|Mother}}, found east of [[Union Station]], and north of [[Youngtown]]. In it, [[Ninten]] can find a [[Desert Cactus|cactus]] that will sing one of the [[Eight Melodies]] when its mind is read via [[Telepathy]]. While [[train]] tracks normally would travel through the desert, the tracks are broken, requiring [[Ninten]] to trek the path toward Youngtown on foot.
The '''Yucca Desert''' is a location in ''EarthBound Beginnings'', found east of [[Union Station]], and north of [[Youngtown]]. The desert is the location of the fifth melody. The music gets remixed in ''[[EarthBound]]'' for [[Dusty Dunes Desert]].


A man in the central oasis in the desert will offer Ninten a ride in his plane, which reveals the location of the singing cactus if he chooses the first course. He will also give any characters who are not unconscious a ticket stub. If Ninten gives him ten of these stubs, he will offer him a ride in his [[tank]] in order to gain entrance to the [[Ruins of Desert|ruins]] in the eastern side of the desert. The ruins in the desert are guarded by  [[R7037]], which can only be defeated by firing the tank's cannon at it. This is optional, however, as it is not required in order to finish the game, but instead provides a secondary exit from {{ebb|Magicant}}.
==Overview==
The desert is accessed from going north of Union Station, then east. The desert is large and mostly uninhabited aside from a war veteran camped near the oasis, additionally Ninten can speak to the camel bones found throughout the desert. Near the center of the desert is an oasis with a veteran who will allow the player to ride his plane, with ticket stubs being given to each party member, which reveals the location of the singing cactus if he chooses the first course.. If Ninten gives him ten of these stubs, he will offer him a ride in his [[tank]] in order to gain entrance to the [[Ruins of Desert|ruins]] in the eastern side of the desert.
 
West of the oasis and slightly north are a group of cactuses, one of which has a face. Should Ninten use [[Telepathy]] on it, the cactus will sing one of the [[Eight Melodies]]. In the eastern portion of the desert are ruins, which requires defeating the [[R7037]] with the tank in order to access. This is optional, however, as it is not required in order to finish the game, but instead provides a secondary exit from {{ebb|Magicant}}.
 
A single tile in the far north-eastern part of desert sets off a land mine revealing a message from [[Shigesato Itoi]] stating it is important to keep the place a secret.
 
==History==
Ninten must pass the desert in order to reach [[Youngtown]]. However, while [[train]] tracks normally would travel through the desert, the tracks are broken, requiring [[Ninten]] to trek the path toward Youngtown on foot. In it, [[Ninten]] can find a [[Desert Cactus|cactus]] that will sing one of the [[Eight Melodies]] when its mind is read via [[Telepathy]].
 
Ninten also meets a veteran in the central oasis, who allows him and his friends to ride the plane while giving out ticket stubs. After obtaining ten stubs, Ninten and his friends are allowed to ride the tank, which he uses to face off the [[R7037]] guarding the ruins to the east. They defeat it by firing the tank's cannon at it, albiet breaking the tank in the process. After exploring the desert the party head south to continue on to Youngtown.
