Shargath

A town of approximate 700 on the shores of Lake Teirfalduin in Taluaine. Home to the Shargathon Lizardfolk, Shargath was built to accommodate the semi-aquatic lizardfolk, with a great portion of the town build upon wooden rafts that float upon the lake. For much of its history, Shargath had little impact on the surrounding area. It served as a trade hub with several nearby camps, and traded food for tools and weapons from the Flintbeards of Ghafad-dûl.

Shargath was the main target of Asphixias during the Viridian Vengeance, in which the Mad Wyrm blamed the Shargathon for the explosion of Ghafad-dûl. Not content with the town living peacefully and not offering up a ludicrous amount of tribute to him. The Green Dragon (wrongfully) assumed the lizardfolk were responsible for the explosion, and swam beneath the lake only to surface in the center of the town, smashing buildings and killing as many lizardfolk as possible. However, the fallout from the exploding volcano forced the Dragon to flee before he could completely raze the area.

Today, Shargath is all but gone, save for the imperceptible ruins that survived both Asphixias and the volcano. One lone building still stands just offshore from the lake; a hollowed-out ruin with an overgrown statue depicting the dragon's rage, perhaps built as a reminder of the tragedy that took place.
