Hlontar

Lost realm situated around the river Tesh reaching as far south as Shadowdale.

Hlontar was founded by the wizard Alokkair, who came from one of the survivor states of Nesseril after they had been swallowed by the Anauroch. Alokkair supported the warrior Hlonagh in subduing rivaling warlords in the region and founding the kingdom of Hlontar in the Year of the Laughing Licht (536 DR). Alokkair served as Hlonaghs court wizard for a time. Finally Alokkair slew Hlonagh and became wizard-king of Hlontar himself. Alokkairs rule was cruel and ruthless.

In 569 DR his three daughters led a rebellion against Alokkair. Only the youngest suurvived and forced Alokkair into hiding in a secret refuge in southern Hlontar, a cave in the Fox Ridge of Shadowdale.

Alokkair has long-term plans to reinstall Hlontar and considered the Zhentarim squatters of his kingdom even in 1375 DR.
