Hlontar

Hlontar was a lost realm situated around the river Tesh reaching as far south as Shadowdale.

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

In 569 DR Alokkair's three daughters led a rebellion against him. Only the youngest survived, forcing Alokkair into hiding in a secret refuge in southern Hlontar—a cave in the Fox Ridge of Shadowdale.

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