Armengar- a fortified city north of the Yabon Hills. According to Macros, Armengar was once called Sar-Isbandia and was actually built by the Glamredhel, as was its twin city to the north, Sar-Sargoth, long before they fell into barbarism. Both cities were made in imitation of the city of the Valheru, Draken-Korin, using sciences plundered from other worlds. Both cities were won by the Moredhel in battle at great cost: first Sar-Sargoth, which became Murmandamus's capital, then Sar-Isbandia. But the first incarnation of Murmandamus was killed in the Battle of Sar-Isbandia, when the Glamredhel were reputedly obliterated. Both cities were abandoned by the Moredhel after his death. Many years later, the Moredhel returned to Sar-Sargoth and men assumed control of Armengar. The ancestors of these "Armengarians" came over the mountains when the Kingdom annexed Yabon. They discovered a rich land which had obviously once been inhabited. Their legend was that the gods ordered a race of giants to build the city, then left it abandoned. Armengar was eventually destroyed in the battle between the new Armengarians and the armies of the false Murmandamus.
