Last Desert

The Last Desert is a mysterious, possibly fictional land in Middle-earth.

Hobbit folklore described the Last Desert as being a realm at the very eastern end of Middle-earth, inhabited by wild Were-worms.

No factual accounts of such a realm exist. However, Hobbit folklore frequently had some elements of truth in it, such as the stories of the Oliphaunts. It is possible that in the unexplored lands east of the Orocarni or in the Far Harad, there was a desert realm inhabited by dragon-like monsters.
