Welcome to Luthadel, the shimmering heart of the Final Empire, where ash rains from the sky and the nights are cloaked in mist.
Luthadel exists during a time of oppressive rule under the Lord Ruler, who has maintained a strict caste system and enforced a brutal regime.
The society is technologically limited, primarily relying on the magical system Allomancy, which allows certain individuals to manipulate metals.
Immerse yourself in the city's striking architecture with a visit to the Steel Ministry or Kredik Shaw. Marvel at the towering spires and intricate designs that reflect the power and control of the Lord Ruler. Watch out for the steel inquisitors if you're a skaa allomancer!
Come from noble blood? Establish yourself in a great house or create your own keep right in the heart of Luthadel. Hope you have some Mistborn to protect you in the house wars!
For the adventurous traveler, a trip to the Pits of Hathsin offers a glimpse into the darker side of Luthadel's history. Work yourself until you lose your sanity collecting Atium for the Lord Ruler, how fun!
