Hisari
This ruined city stands in the jungle at the foot of the Crown, a fuming volcano that marks the western end of the Sky Lizard Mountains.
Tales say that after an eruption of the Crown, the earth swallowed half of the city, which now rests in a sprawling underground cavern that is no longer warmed by the sun. The rest of Hisari remains above ground, engulfed by vines and creeping flowers. Every brick and pillar is coated in moss, and a latticework of roots and ash covers the city’s cracked, golden domes.
It's said that the city fell to idol worship, and that the citizenry were transformed into hideous snakes, or snake-men. Saja N'baza sent her greatest warrior and the first Voice of the Oracle, Ngozi Mbalawa, to slay the snake-men but she never returned.
