Stormseat is the capital city of the Silver Kingdom of Natanatan on Roshar.[1] It is believed to have been destroyed during Aharietiam.

Following the Assassination of King Gavilar Kholin of Alethkar, the Parshendi retreated to the ruins of Stormseat, which they renamed Narak, meaning exile in their language, as it is the place where they had become separated from their gods. It either is the central plateau or sits atop the central plateau of the Shattered Plains and was once the largest city on the Shattered Plains.[2]

All that remains of the original city during the War of Reckoning is ruins buried beneath layers of crem, described by Eshonai as "ruins of ruins."

Listener construction in Narak includes a watering square, a pool sculpted from crem by nimbleforms for catching rain from the riddens of a highstorm, and the Hall of Art.
