Zajâna, the City of Scholars, and the City of Keys, is an ancient city-state located in the region of Kighân, part of the territory of Mûr Ghala. It was founded by the Kingdom of Nísaka, and was one of the ancestral realms of the Shagâni people, alongside Hamât to the north and Nísaka itself, to the northwest. It is ruled by the Doorwards of Zajâna, who stand in opposition to the forces of Ordâkh.
History
Zajâna was founded as a humble Nísakari waystation, a place to rest on the long road between Shagâna and the deserts and jungles to the south. From this simple beginning, the city blossomed, its streets laden with the promise of knowledge and the riches of the world. Its gates opened to scholars, its halls shone with learning. Zajâna long stood among the notable Shagâni city-states whose legacy endured into the Third Age. Its people were renowned for their resilience, being long accustomed to war and hardship.
By the late Third Age, Zajâna and its kindred lands of Kighân were subjugated by the Great Empire of Ordâkh. Under its rule, the Shagâni were compelled to offer worship to Sauron, though many among them defied this command.
After the fall of Sauron, Zajâna has risen as a city of scholars and trade using the Road of Riches for trade to and from Umbar Baharbêl, but though the dark lord has fallen, threats still loom from within the city's walls.
Culture
The inhabitants of Zajâna shared in the broader Shagâni heritage, being a diverse people descended from multiple realms and traditions. Like their neighbors in Hamât and Nísaka, they were seasoned in warfare and adapted to the harsh conditions of their homeland.
