The city of Kadarasto sat atop a bluff above the Nogaro River, about 100 mi (160.93 km) up the flow from Dihliz.[1]
Structure
The city's appearance was dominated by an unusual lightless and angular architecture. Kadarasto's long history was present in many ruins in the city and the surrounding countryside, which was believed to have once been the old kingdom of Kadar.[1]
Religion
The Enlightenment came late to this part of Zakhara, and its natives had a reputation of secretiveness, savagery, and idolatry giving Kadarasto the title "City Most Sinister".[1][2]
Trade
Most of the populace was believed to derive its income from rice and more notably the antiquities trade, such as tomb robbing.[1]
