Imam

Imam, Jewel of the South, was one of the six Free Cities of Koria that existed before The Sunder. Situated in what is now the Southern Wastes, its place along the western mountain range of the Iskan Peaks provided perfect placement for the mining of the massive veins of gold that run through those mountains.

Founded in 423 TS, the city was home to some of the wealthiest houses of Humanity in all of Koria, and was said to be one of the main trading partners of the Dwarves of Runedar, who were happy to trade their stored of gems for the river of gold that poured from Imam.

Sadly, during the Planar War that erupted after The Sunder, Imam was burned to the ground by the Elemental Army of Imix in 7 AS.
