Like its eastern sister, the west wing of Cabilis is not welcoming of outsiders. It would be the final actions of a fool to cross the city gates of Cabilis without having earned the trust of the Iksar.

A few merchants sell various goods here, and training for necromancers is available. Some of the masters in the Tower of Death will send their hatchling apprentices into the wilds beyond the city gates to complete certain tasks. Upon completion of these tasks, the Iksar apprentice shall not only prove themselves worthy to remain a living member of the Iksar race, but shall be generously afforded the tools necessary to advance in its studies.

There are three two-way routes into West Cabilis:

• Lake of Ill Omen from the southwest,
• Warsliks Woods from the northwest, and
• East Cabilis from the East part of the city via the canals

The paths leading in from outside the city are heavily guarded by stationary Troopers along with roaming Crusaders.

There is a single one-way route in West Cabilis:

• from the West Cabilis firepot in Timorous Deep.

Factions

The following factions apply to residents within West Cabilis for which outsiders should be aware:

• Cabilis Residents (Merchants)
• Legion of Cabilis (Warriors)
• Crusaders of Greenmist (Shadow Knights)
• Brood of Kotiz (Necromancers)
• Swift Tails (Monks) - primarily only with the guards (Troopers)
• Scaled Mystics (Shaman) - primarily only with the guards (Troopers)

The vast majority of West Cabilis residents are on Legion of Cabilis and Brood of Kotiz faction, to include most shopkeepers and any residents within the Tower of Death. Crusaders (the roaming guards) are the only ones with Crusaders of Greenmist faction, but they also have Legion of Cabilis faction. A small minority of the shopkeepers have Cabilis Residents faction (in addition to Legion of Cabilis). Only the stationary guards (Troopers) have Swift Tails and Scaled Mystics faction, as well as the other factions on the list above except Brood of Kotiz.

Lore

If you are interested in reading the histories, a forbidden scribe (at /loc -107, 637) can be found in a small room near the canal going to Cabilis East, just around the corner from the merchant tent housing Jondin and Jaxxtz.

Places of Interest

The Tower of Death

The most prominent feature of West Cabilis is the Tower of Death. It's the stronghold of the necromancers of the iksar people. Dark are the ways of the iksar necromancers named the Brood of Kotiz, who follow the dark teachings of the ancient necromancer, Kotiz. Do not tread upon their grounds if you are not one with their dark circle. Do so and you just may be their next experiment. All other iksar fear the necromancers and leave them alone, an arrangement that the necromancers are very happy with. Within their tower they perform experiments and strengthen their Art and, through that, all iksar. Merchants in this area owe fealty to the Tower and not to the Haggle Baron, so it is possible to find items here that the Haggle Baron doesn't believe in.
