View source for Cardimer

The city of '''Cardimer''' is located on the shore of [[Shark's Fin Bay]], about midway between [[Mentoncha (city)|Mentoncha]] and [[Agropthos]]. It is mainly known as a trading city, and is sometimes called the "Gateway to the [[Cardillic Desert|Seven Deserts]]", as the desert region of [[Cardyl]] is generally considered to begin just north of this city. This is, of course, disputed by Agropthos, which is also called that by others.

== Disputed status ==
Cardimer is part of the Caliphate of [[Upanistan]], and is thus under the rulership of Caliph [[Kapoc al'Ramed kaf'Upan|Kapoc]], who lives in that city, which lies to the northwest. This, too, is disputed, as Sultan [[Bedou dan Yuwar]], the Caliph of Cardyl, considers the city to be under his rule. The city's own leader, Emir [[Rocan dahar Plaez|Rocan]], has done his best to stay neutral in this dispute, which has resulted in his mostly being left alone to run the city.

Nearly twenty-five years ago, Rocan's father, [[Faindi ni'Uron Plaez|Faindi]], sought to solidify their connection to Upanistan by arranging a marriage between his daughter, [[Nayala]], and [[Amar al'Hassan kaf'Daro]], the eldest son of then-Sheik [[Hassan al'Namar kaf'Daro|Hassan]] of [[Daro]]. However, the marriage was short-lived, as Nayala was executed for adultery just a few years later. Rocan has vowed not to repeat that mistake.
