Tzallis (pronounced “Chalice”) was a small city built in the marshes on the border between Dalaghendor and the Trakar Swamp. The whole town is built on decking laid on strong stone pillars driven into the marsh. Being placed where it was it formed a centre for trade between the lizardmen of the swamp to the west, the humans of the bigger towns to the east, and travelling traders on the Galaglas River. The dragon invasions of Dalaghendor in the 1900s changed everything. Trade collapsed, the lizardmen went back to their old raiding ways, and - worst of all - a red dragon dropped out of the sky in 1913 and destroyed most of the better sections of the town, looting the richer businesses and inhabitants before leaving. No-one even knows its name.

Since then, Tzallis has declined rapidly, with a remnant of the population eking out a living in the wreckage. Few remember what Dalaghendor even was, or have any idea what lies around the “city”. Recently, things have become worse, because orcs have settled in some other ruins to the east and are raiding the town as well, in competition with the lizardmen. It’s quite likely that Tzallis will not long survive being caught in the crossfire.
