Zandri (city)

Zandri, the "Fleetport of Terror," was one of the largest and greatest port cities within the realm of Nehekhara. It commanded the waters off the Great Mortis Delta.

In the city's harbours at the mouth of the Great Mortis River, ancient barges that writhe with dark energy still float, manned by Skeleton crews who bend their backs at the oars to the resonant boom of drums and the cracks of their taskmaster's whips.

Along the waters of the miles-wide Mortis River, and across the Great Ocean to the north, the Tomb Fleets bring the terror of Nehekhara to distant realms. These imposing armadas set out laden with skeletal legions and vengeful rulers thirsty for conquest.

History
One of Zandri's greatest rulers was King Amenemhetum. During his reign he built a vast fleet of warships and sailed the oceans of the Old World, conquering the lands across the seas in the name of Ualatep, the vulture god.

His kingdom extended deep into the lands of what is now Tilea and under his rule Zandri became a fabulous and wealthy place. Now the city lies in ruin, and the streets are quiet, but the seas still stir with unnatural life.

When Nagash awoke the Tomb Kings, they waged war on each other. In death, as he had in life, Amenemhetum was content to be ruler of the oceans, ancient vessels, still as glorious as they were when the king still lived, ply the waters once more.
