I would also imagine that in a desert, boiled leather is preferred over metal armor. Nothing like 3rd degree burns from your mail as it heats up during the day. :eek:

And trip you out.
"Here is light. You will say that it is not a living entity, but you miss the point that it is more, not less. Without occupying space, it fills the universe. It nourishes everything, yet itself feeds upon destruction. We claim to control it, but does it not perhaps cultivate us as a source of food? May it not be that all wood grows so that it can be set ablaze, and that men and women are born to kindle fires?"

Boiling leather makes it shrink, thus harder to penetrate. So yea, cheap armour.
