Halwa

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