An old halt on the caravan road, kept by the same family and slowly made into somewhere to stay. There is a spring here, which is the only reason anything stands in this much open ground.
The rooms are stone and canvas. The water is cold and clear. The kitchen cooks over fire and serves late, and no one minds how long you sit. We keep twelve rooms and no more, so the desert stays the loudest thing around.
We took the name from the oryx, the pale desert animal that was nearly lost and then brought back. It seemed right for a place that was almost let go, and was not.
