Around this time, [[Dahlia]] from [[Sandholm]] ventured to Masov Oasis in desperate need of medicine after her own settlement fell victim to [[viral hemorrhagic fever|disease]]. However, upon arriving at Masov, Dahlia was captured and locked away with the human traders.

The buildings of Masov Oasis are mostly [[Sangheili]] in design; tall spires among the trees and domes scattered across the settlement's handful of streets, all lit by floodlights. Masov is home to bubbling fountains, clean buildings, and carefully maintained gardens, and was described as serene and peaceful at night. The [[human]] traders that frequented Masov gathered in a square, metallic two-storied building that stood out among the rounded buildings built by the Sangheili. | The buildings of Masov Oasis are mostly [[Sangheili]] in design; tall spires among the trees and domes scattered across the settlement's handful of streets, all lit by floodlights.
