Ereshkigal

Ereshkigal, or the Iron Spires of Ereshkigal, was a ruined city found on the isle of Sahu in east Zakhara in the early 1400s DR.

Geography
The ruins sat roughly north of Jinutt in the northwest part of the island. Ereshkigal was situated several miles inland, making it difficult to spot from the Crowded Sea.

Description
Hundreds of strange metal spires filled the ruins covering several square miles. The spires resembled giant mushrooms or other fungi. Of the completely intact spires that remained, all had several small orifices at the base that revealed a hollow interior bereft of any stairs. The spires had a single opening at their peak off the ground. Bizarre inscriptions could be found decorating the towers. A single spire in the middle of the ruins stood taller than all the rest.

Defenses
Contrary to popular belief, the treasures of Ereshkigal were not unguarded as the Iron Spires served as homes to large packs of ghouls and ghasts. Additionally, a powerful greater mummy could be found in the central spire.
