'''Sesemalex Dar''' is the capital of the kingdom of [[Emul]]{{book ref|sa1|54}} on [[Roshar]] during the [[Era of Solitude]].{{map ref|Roshar}}
== Geography ==
The city of Sesemalex Dar sits on a stone plain on the west coast of Emul.{{book ref|sa1|55}} It borders on [[Tukar]] and is northeast of [[Torriqqam]].{{map ref|Roshar}}{{map ref|Eastern Makabak}}
The design of Sesemalex Dar is intricate and often said to be spectacular,{{book ref|sa1|54}} built in enormous gashes in the ground to protect it from [[highstorm]]s.{{book ref|sa1|55}} Each trough has a lip of rock diverting water from flowing into the city and a complex drainage system of cracks to help it weather the storms,{{book ref|sa1|55}} as well as stone of a unique composition that helps with the drainage.{{book ref|sa1|54}} The pattern of the Sesemalex Dar is central to the Emuli religion.{{book ref|sa1|54}} The structure of the city is very similar to [[Yeddaw]], and many consider visiting Yeddaw to be the closest thing to seeing Sesemalex Dar itself.{{book ref|sa2.5|2}}
== History ==
Sesemalex Dar was founded at an unknown time. One of the most ancient cities in the world, some believed it to be a [[Dawncity]].{{book ref|sa1|54}}{{book ref|sa1|55}} The Emuli made the city their capital at some point, regarding its design as central to their religion. However, the Tukari also desired the city for its use as a port, and they were able to use the status of their ruler, [[Tezim]], as a justification for attempting to take it.{{book ref|sa1|54}} This resulted in the [[Eighty's War]], a conflict centered around the city which lasted several years.{{book ref|sa2|i|14}}
At the advent of the [[True Desolation]], the Eighty's War was swallowed up by the conflict with [[Odium]]'s forces. The [[Fused]] and [[singers]] took the southern part of Emul, including Sesemalex Dar.{{book ref|sa4|19}} The city was freed from this occupation when the [[coalition of monarchs]] successfully regained control of Emul in {{Rosharan date|1175}}.{{book ref|sa4|99}}
== Culture ==
It is said that the city of Sesemalex Dar--and the entire kingdom of Emul--was named by [[Jezrien]] himself. Some people such as [[Au-nak]] believe Sesemalex Dar to be a [[Dawncity]]. The Emuli believe that Sesemalex Dar is their ancestral homeland given to them by the [[Heralds]] and often speak of its religious significance.{{book ref|sa1|54}}
