Saradush

Saradush is a metropolis within the land of Tethyr. Once a great bureaucratic center for the city's royal dynasty, Saradush fell into a period of decline following the Spellplague. Despite this, Saradush is becoming an important waystation for trade involving the area surrounding Lake of Steam. Given its proximity to several kinds of terrain, along with increased prominence as trade traffic with Riatavin rises, Saradush has also become a haven for travellers and adventurers alike.

Government
Lord Mayor Tanithe Beyross is the current elected leader of Saradush however Lord Oon Santele, Count of Surkazar is the true leader behind the Beyross.

Armed Forces
The Saradush Guard boasts 200 members and is an adequate to resolve most disturbances within the walls of the city. If more help is needed, it is usually found in the form of ex-adventurers or mercenary citizens of the city.

Religion
Saradush is unusual as there are no major temples within the city. Those who do regularly worship, do so in small shrines within their own homes. There are a few temples just outside of the city's borders such as that dedicated to Beshaba in the hills to the east.

Shortly after the Time of Troubles at least, a Temple of Waukeen was erected permanently in Saradush.

The Tankard-Tree
Despite being somewhat neglected, this tavern maintains good fare as its owner mourns the loss of his only child.
