Golmuth

Golmuth, the Fifth City of the Sword, was one of the core cities in ancient Jhaamdath.
==Geography==
Golmuth was a few days west of the First City, Naarkolyth, just north of Gharrent and south of the Orsraun Mountains. After its destruction, it lay in the Selmal Basin beneath the waters of the Vilhon Reach.
==History==
Golmuth was founded in as the fifth of Jhaamdath's cities, preceded the same year by nearby Gharrent.
In the , Jhaamdath began aggressively deforesting the Chondalwood and slaying the elves of Nikerymath. The elven response in the was a High Magic ritual that caused a great wave from the Inner Sea to wash over the Cities of the Sword and destroy the aggressors. Golmuth remained a sunken ruin hidden beneath the water, with its many lost psionic artifacts slowly affecting the nearby environment.
The sunken ruins of Jhaamdath were suddenly revealed by the lower sea levels that followed the Spellplague in 1385 DR, becoming the Vilhon Wilds. They were then returned to obscurity by the Great Rain and Second Sundering in 1486 DR.
