Sesemalex Dar is the capital of the kingdom of Emul[1] on Roshar.[2]
It is one of the most ancient cities in the world.[3] It is said that the city--and the entire kingdom of Emul--was named by Jezrien himself. In fact, Au-nak believes Sesemalex Dar is a Dawncity.[1] The Emuli believe that Sesemalex Dar is their ancestral homeland.
Sesemalex Dar is a major waypoint and trade city of the south.[1] Because of this, the bordering nation of Tukar wants the city, which is the root of the Eighty's War.[1]
The design of Sesemalex Dar is intricate, built in enormous gashes in the ground to protect it from highstorms. The city has a lip of rock diverting water from flowing into the city and a complex drainage system to help it weather highstorms.[3] The pattern of the city is central to the Emuli religion.
