Halwa

Located about 200 miles east of Wasat within the desert of the Haunted Lands, Halwa was one of Zakhara's "Cities of the Heart". Its lonely inland position next to the usally dry bed of Wadi Malih gave Halwa the title City of Solitude, though it was still an active trading city, a meeting point between city-dwellers and desert nomads. Livestock and durable goods were important commodities, as was care for caravans on their way to Hiyal and adventurers looking for riches in the desert. More sinister goods were sold in Halwa's underground slave market.
