In Aymara, darkness. Dense, coastal and morning fog from southern Peru and northern Chile near the Atacama Desert, which is displaced by the wind inland. I have read that around here they use fog catchers that can get several liters of water a day per square meter of mesh. A phenomenal idea that can be transferred to places that have high relative humidity values.
