=== The Gap ===
Tomat has a city wall, but at the time of the [[True Desolation]] it had been broken for several generations, with the resulting gap becoming infamous among its citizens.{{book ref|sa4|i|10}}
== History ==
Tomat was one of the cities that was occupied by [[singer]]s during the invasion of Alethkar by [[Odium]]'s forces that began in {{Rosharan date|1174}}. Although the city had a defensive wall, it had been broken by unknown means several generations before the [[True Desolation]]. The residents of the city offered little resistance to the invading army.{{book ref|sa4|i|10}}
In {{Rosharan date|1175}}, the [[coalition of monarchs]] sent scouts on reconnaissance missions throughout Alethkar. [[Kara]] observed the area that included Tomat, taking notes on singer troop placement and the condition of the buildings. She reported that the city was in good shape, likely owing to the fact that they had quickly surrendered. She also noted that the singers had started to repair the city wall.{{book ref|sa4|i|10}}
==Notable Residents==
▲It is near the border to both [[Jah Keved]] and [[Herdaz]], and is just north of the [[Vamah princedom]].{{map ref|Alethkar}} It seems to be located on a river that runs along the Alethkar-Jah Keved border, which later becomes the Jah Keved-Herdaz border before running through Herdaz and into a bay in the [[Reshi Isles]].{{map ref|Roshar}}
[[Hesina]] had particular interest in reading Kara's notes on Tomat. She had a conversation with [[Lirin]] indicating that her father lived in the city and owned a business there. Hesina worried that her father's obstinate personality might have led him to resist the singers even if the rest of the town surrendered.{{book ref|sa4|i|10}}
