Koelarah (Ko-la-rah)

Koelarah is the capital of the desert. It is a city known for gold and intrigue. In ancient times it was a settlement of Bronze Gnomes.* They were the greatest of the Gnomish Tribes in the land. This was because instead of utilizing Druidic, Arcane, or Divine magic, they pioneered the esoteric arcanum of Artifice. The Ancient Bronze Gnomes created machines and inventions of unimaginable power.  They dominated the desert, defeating Nomad Dwarves* and wild Tabaxi who had controlled the land before. The city of Koelarah grew and grew and grew, and the Bronze Gnomes began to spread out from the desert. Astounded by meeting conquerors from far away the Aozxim (Gnomish name for Bronze Gnomes) began creating treaties and exchanging ideas with the new people. Slowly, foreigners were allowed into Koelarah, and eventually it was "peacefully" brought into the Kingdom of Feldnor. It was made the capital of the desert land, and a council was established there. The noble families and rulers of Koelarah became infamous for corruption and crime. As crime became commonplace in Koelarah, cults of Drakken began forming and the most famous Thieves' Guild in the history of Thalun-Feldnor. Koelarah continued on like this, and is still a troublesome place. When Andromeda fell, many noble families, Thiefdoms, and guilds began a war in the streets all attempting to consolidate power.
