| World | Roshar |
Urithiru was a city on Roshar during the Silver Kingdoms Era.
The orders of the Knights Radiant were centered here and it was said to be the center of the Silver Kingdoms and held ten thrones, one for each king. There was some disagreement as to whether or not Urithiru was accessible by foot, Varala and Sinbian both claimed that it was inaccessible by foot but in Nohadon's eighth parable from The Way of Kings he claimed that he walked from Abamabar to Urithiru. The easiest known way to get to Urithiru is through an Oathgate.
