As transcribed from the books of the Cabilis Historians
Deep in the canyons of the Overthere rests the cliff city of Charasis. This grand city was home to the mightiest of all Iksar tribes, the Kunzar.
Charasis is also believed to be the birthplace of the great Emperor Venril Sathir the uniter. Although Emperor Sathir ruled from the Imperial city of Sebilis, he was rumored to have stored his most valuable possesions within the many vaults and chambers of Charasis.
Emperor Sathir's beloved, Drusella, now rests within a grand crypt in Charasis' depths. After her funeral and burial, Emperor Sathir cast all citizens from the city. Only the royal guard and servants where allowed to stay--and they would stay forever.
These Iksar were never again to feel the warmth of the sun or bask in the moonlight. It is written that Emperor Sathir crafted a spell to hide the entrance of Charasis from raiders and those would dare to steal his knowledge and defile his beloved Drusella's crypt. Emperor Sathir would visit the cliff city frequently. What he would do inside is not known, but passersby would spread tales of powerful magic auras and the sounds of things from beyond our realm.
Upon the death of one of Emperor Sathir's royal guard, the secret of Charasis' entrance was nearly revealed. Upon a tattered scroll, the dying guard recorded the secret. The scroll is now lost to the world. Taken as pure babble by the mortician of Sebilis, it was cast aside and lost to time.
After Emperor Sathir's death his son and new emperor, Rile, was the last to hold the secret of entry. The cult loyal to Emperor Venril known as the the Arisen are rumored to have stolen the lost scroll of the royal guard. There have been several sightings of the forsaken cult slinking in the shadows of the Overthere's massive canyons.
It was during the time known as the end days that the Ring of Scale destroyed most of the great cities of the ancient Iksar. Charasis and it's guardians and treasures may be lost forever. May those entombed within guard her secrets from invaders.
