Dorial (City)

The capitol city of the Citlalic Kingdom and the origin of the Blight.

The Age of Erudition
Sandstone cliffs protect three sides of this city while the fourth side is set against a calm lake in the resulting valley. A lot of the city is built into those red cliffs (the surrounding area is called the Whispering Flats). In the center sits the Ayar Academy (Evocation), a golden structure with a gleaming white dome. Two large statutes stand at the ends of the cliffs, depicting two of the city's greatest leaders: the half-elf man Iktan Favaris and the human woman Temetl Saavedra.

Dorial is the home city of the aasimar warlock Orien Vendhrir.

The Pyrrhic Age
The Lorn has completely taken over the city, and what remains in uninhabitable. The sandstone cliffs have risen up, surrounding the city with twisted bramble-like stone structures, making the journey through a twisted maze of rock. "'The tall buildings are reminiscent of skeletons, the bare bones of a decaying city. The bright paint is flaking off, leaving behind bare stone, and gaping dark holes, like eyeless sockets, stare at the horizon. The glass has long since returned to sand.'"Most of the buildings are still standing, and the Great Hall of the Ayer Acdemy stands in the center. The interior holds the gateway between the Material Plane and the Lower Plane through which the Blight entered the world, and it is guarded by one of the great Gaurdians that was twisted by the Blight - it resisted just enough to maintain its duty of protecting the gateway from reopening. (A sphinx, perhaps?)

The Mizquitl Lake has become a blackened, inky pit home to a kraken, one of the first beings twisted by the Blight.
