## History Calimshan was ravaged by two warring elemental lords: [[Calim]], an air elemental and djinn/genie, and [[Memnon]], an efreet. Their battle lasted 1000 years. Eventually, elves helped residents of Calimshan to trap both the lords into the [[Calimemnon Crystal]], stopping the war and allowing civilization and life to continue in Calimshan. Calimshan became one of the most successful port cities in the south. [[ttrpgs/Order of the Wandering Mind/The Spellplague]] shattered the [[Calimemnon Crystal|Calimemnon Crystal]], released [[Calim|Calim]] and [[Memnon|Memnon]]. They then overthrew Calimshan's government to recruit efreets, djinns, genasi, and human slaves to fight against each other. Where such elemental races were once shunned, they were suddenly highly sought after. ## Locations - [[ttrpgs/Order of the Wandering Mind/Calimport|Calimport]] - exotic goods, slaves, black market - [[Memnon|Memnon]] - a grand metropolis with exotic and valuable goods - [[Almraiven|Almraiven]] - some humans live here, taking refuge in the presence of arcane magicians here, including the [[WeavePasha|The WeavePasha]]'s college of magic.
