There are people who claim that they can look upon the land, and the land will speak to them.
I recently got caught in a sandstorm, and particles of sand flew past my eyes.
What is the desert saying?
(The solution is six letters)
Answer
It's hard to be sure with all this sand in my eyes, but I believe the desert is saying:
CACTUS
Reasoning:
Firstly, the title and the fact that the only numbers used in the grains of sand are 1 - 12, hint towards a clock face. From here, we can treat numbers as directions, such that from any given point, you just take the number given and travel according to the associated hour direction:
Then, starting at the odd grain out (the dark coloured 9), follow the path:
You have to squint a bit (because of all the sand), but it's pretty clear that the path scribes the word
CACTUS.
