In the twilight of the age of Dawn, there was a city near where Chiru now stands. It was a ratori city that was a jewel amongst the sand. Buildings made entirely of baked clay rose to the sky, covered in mosaics. The ratori turned the desert into a marketplace and maze of gardens. Their irrigation systems were advanced, and their caravans crossed the known world. The ratori of Thrumut were also experts in astronomy, and their stargazing made the city a beacon of knowledge.
