Hizel

History
In this city dwelt pious humans who worshipped their gods as they were always told. One day, they decided to construct a great temple in dedication and as a show of their faith, one that would reach the clouds. They worked upon the temple for decades, eventually the job passed along to the next generations that proceeded the originators.

The builders and city elders were contacted by one they assumed to be one of their gods with a proposal. Place an altar to him at the top of their construction project, and in return, he will help them in their efforts, a proposal that was agreed upon. As his blessing, this unknown deity gifted the workers with a near-infinite supply of energy, strength, and mathematics, in addition to all else they would need to complete their tasks. With his help, the human faithful quickly raised their tower's height within a few months. The deity's altar was placed, as promised, atop the upper most section of the tower.

As the decades past, those who were present forgot about the deal with the unknown deity and things began to return to what was considered normal.

Overview
Ever since the arrival of the fiends, Hizel and its surrounding territory became inhospitable to the mortal races after prolonged exposure, usually with poison that amasses itself within the body. The many lakes and rivers have been turned into sludge that continue to birth new fiends near endlessly.
