Mafal Dadaranell was an Ogier-built city constructed after the Breaking of the World as the capital of Aramaelle, one of the Ten Nations that arose after the end of the Breaking. Like most Ogier-constructed settlements, the city was beautiful, made up of graceful buildings based on organic shapes. However, due to the city's proximity to the Blight and to Tarwin's Gap, it was also strongly fortified.
