The City of the Plains was one of the most ancient cities of Kelewan. It was built near a bay, on the plain on which the humans arrived on the Golden Bridge to this world, escaping the Chaos Wars. During its prosperous times, it was populated by industrious people and the City of the Plains had white towers ascend to the skies. Caravans came overland and ships came through the bay. One day a scarred ship notified the City about enemies coming across the water. Runners were sent to the cities of the north to call for help, since only the City could stop the danger.
