=== Construction ===
The actual origins of the city are unknown. It was constructed "hundreds of years if not over a thousand years" before the [[Reod]],{{wob ref|4638}} likely before the [[Splinter]]ing of [[Devotion]] and [[Dominion]].{{wob ref|14651}} The people who built it possessed a keen understanding of [[AonDor]], as the Elantrian Metropolitan Area, comprising Elantris and its four outer cities, forms a massive [[Aon#Rao|Aon Rao]], which acts as a power amplifier for the Elantrians. Its builders were themselves Elantrians, as only they would have been able to make the Aons formed by the city work.{{wob ref|2230}}
The hidden library also held a secret passage to the Lake.{{book ref|Elantris|25}}
