Enqura

Enqura was a former Holy Falah'd of the Holy City of Ugarat at the time of the invasion by the Malazan Empire of Seven Cities. Before the Malazan invasion, Ugarat had been in the midst of a renaissance, with eleven schools of learning established and long lost knowledge of the time of the First Empire being rediscovered.House of Chains, Chapter 21, UK MMPB p.804

The High Mage Febryl recalled that rather than allow Ugarat's treasure of knowledge to fall into the hands of the Malazans, Enqura had commanded Febryl, who at the time was his most loyal supporter and known by his real name Iltara, to shut down the schools and confiscate the hundred thousand scrolls and bound volumes, the ancient relics of the First Empire as well as the teachers and scholars themselves. Those scholars who did not commit suicide out of grief and despair were crucified.House of Chains, Chapter 21, UK MMPB p.805
By the Protector’s decree, Ugarat’s coliseum became the site of a vast conflagration, as everything was burned and destroyed. The Holy Protector paid for this deed with his life. Even the other Falah'd pronounced this betrayal as the foulest crime in the wars and Enqura's name became a curse for both Malazans and Seven Cities natives alike.House of Chains, Chapter 21, UK MMPB p.805/806
