Gerent Urt

Gerent Urt is the capital city of the Gerentis, a desert-plains people. It lies between the deserted north of the country and the Jan'ah Hills to the south. Gerent Urt also lies on an east-west road running between Yashba and Jarih.
Gerent Urt, like most other Gerentian settlements, grew from a nomadic camp and, as such, bears the architecture of the desert-plains peoples. Buildings are circular and have high sloping conical roofs that cover most of the walls' height. They are built of stone and thatch, a substitute for the sandstone and reeds used by Parsanians.
The settlement is dominated by the palace complex of Sharqa Qintar ul-Urda, lying on the site of his predecessors' palaces. The palace complex is rebuilt to the new Sharqa's specifications following his succession to the throne. Currently it is a large central building with wings on the cardinal directions and secondary buildings off the wings.
