Ulatos

Ulatos is the only city of any size in Payit on the continent of Maztica. It was conquered by Cordell and the Golden Legion in 1361 DR. The city is dominated by a huge pyramid temple of Qotal in the center of the city. The pyramid has lush hanging gardens and a magical spring on top.

Government
The Revered Counselor Caxal was allowed by the Amnnians to remain the figurehead ruler of Ulatos. The Mazticans are allowed to settle disputes among themselves but disputes involving Faerûnians are adjudicated by a tribunal composed of representatives of the Council of Six and the Church of Helm.

Points of Interest
The Grand Market occupies the former site of the pyramid of Zaltec. Goods of both Faerûnian and Maztican origin may be found here. Caxal's Palace is a modest twelve room palace that faces the plaza of the pyramids.

Religion

The grand market of Ulatos now stands on the former site of the pyramid. Azul's pyramid was torn halfway down and a temple of Helm was erected at the site. The pyramids of Plutoq, Kiltzi and Watil were left intact and rituals are still performed on these sites.
