The city resided within a deep chasm that narrows on one end and opens onto the Sea of Spears at the other. The canyon that held the city is at least 150 feet deep and V shaped in nature.[5] The area above the canyon is flat and rocky and the city was difficult to spot when approached from above. A wall enclosed the opening to the Rift on all sides except the western.[5]
Politics
Prior to the unification of Alethkar, Rathalas is ruled by Brightlord Tanalan.[5] Nine years after Tanalan is killed, his son (with whom he shares a name) returns to the city leading to the possibility of rebellion in the region.[6] After eleven years of failed negotiations between King Gavilar Kholin and Tanalan, the city is razed to the ground to set an example and its people and leader slaughtered.
