“Sangrithar was not a pleasant place in those days, Jerilyn.  I did visit from time to time, always incognito of course, not that anyone would recognize me, but I’d invariably return to my home in Tyrnavalle.  I much preferred the wilds of the subcontinents to Sangrithar’s civilization.  By your day, things were different.  Mad emperors, deluded by false claims of divinity no longer sat upon the Pearl Throne and some semblance of order had been restored, though the City of the Golden Star never again attained the splendor it had achieved during the reign of the Priest-Kings.”   The Wizard of the Blue Lagoon
