Document Summary
Szith Valthoris was originally constructed towards the end of the Divine Marches, during the Siege of Ilarnoamuth. Starting as a small outpost known as Marathonea, the outpost grew as soldiers stopped and spent hard-earned coin for a days' rest and hard drink. When the war ended, and the empire collapsed,

The lowest city-state in the Black Marches, the city of Szith Valthoris was the second city built by House T’Sael after their previous city of Szith Krassien was destroyed. Szith Valthoris was built as a small outpost originally, but its location allowed it to become the center of trade as almost all roads meet at Szith Valthoris. This allowed the city to grow, eventually becoming Trade Capital of the Black Marches. Szith Valthoris is also the only city to be controlled by one family, unlike most city-states where the city is divided into lesser houses and districts.
