Lost Citadel

This rough-hewn stone fortress looks to have stood for centuries past its abandonment by the original occupants─though its vaulted corridors now echo with the restless prowling of more monstrous denizens. Architecturally, the rhomboid motifs and cavernous central dome bear a striking similarity to the Amdapori ruins discovered in the Twelveswood. The presence of multiple stone guardians also implies some relation to ancient Amdapor.

Occult Record: The Lost Citadel

Lost Citadel is an area in The Occult Crescent: South Horn. Located in the east region of the map, this area is Amdapori-themed. An excerpt of the background music from Dungeon Amdapor Keep will play here.

Lore

Amdapori golems, originally conceived of to combat Mhachi black magi, are said to have once been produced in workshops like this one. Initially, the constructs were simplistic and functional, but as the Amdapori perfected their craft, they began to represent people and animals alike. Towards the close of the Fifth Astral Era, the creations became ever more removed from reality, with craftsmen giving life to winged creatures and other flights of fancy.
