First founded as a forteress by the infamous Warlord Ptaraz, Tanirith has grown over the centuries to become today's center of knowledge and trade in the Sword Lands. Even by the standards of other kingdoms of the Realmz, Tanirith is a very large city, if not easily among the largest of the continent. Tanirith is also known for its grapevine yards, which produce year after year vintages that are always in high demand. Although Tanirith boasts of a sizeable soldiery and militia, the city and its territories of influence are chiefly protected by the knights of the Order of the Flame, a chivalrous knighthood order founded centuries past by the legendary knight Jasper Flameheart. Of late, however, all is not well within the order: indeed, the knights are becoming increasingly lax in their protective duties, if not acting in an outright uncaring manner. In addition, Tanirith's wineyards are rotting away for no reasons, while stranger and more dangerous things are happening in the city's sewers. These problems have left the people of Tanirith, and their ruler -the Lord Paladine-, in a state of disarray and dread.
