'''Almuj''' is a desert-city located at the far eastern part of the world in the [[Desert of Almuj]], geared towards level 30-39 players. It is one of the largest cities in the [[Wynn Province]], in terms of both size and wealth, despite the fact there is a '''Poverty Ridden Portion''' in South-Almuj. Adventurers travelling to Almuj will find a full compliment of merchants, an item identifier, and a majestic bank at the pinnacle of the city. The city also plays home to the mysterious "Banker", as well as a swath of rumours regarding an underground merchant. The city currently serves as the starting point of 3 quests, and heroes seeking out challenge will find convenient Almuj's close proximity to the [[Sand-Swept Tomb]]. The city is located on a crossroad between the vast [[savannah]] and the scorching [[Desert of Almuj|desert]]. It is the gateway to the desert.
'''Almuj''' is a city in the far eastern desert. It is the one of largest [[:Category:City|cities]] in the Wynn Province, containing several merchants like armor and weapon and has many buildings, and is the start point for three [[Quests|quest]]. Almuj is home to the merchant that sells the [[Special Items|special armor]] - Black Armor.

Travelers looking to make the journey to Almuj are advised to be of at least level 15, as the packs of dangerous ocelots roaming the bordering Savannah could prove deadly. Lower-leveled players can also enter by ascending the wall near Ternaves and walking safely across the top to Almuj.

==History==

Almuj was likely built under the '''[[The Desert Empire|Desert Empire]]''', an ancient civilization that thrived in the Desert for many centuries before 1400 BP, ruled over by the "Emperor", who drew his power from his Sceptre.

Then, when the Emperor's son, [[Hashr]], killed his own father to usurp his power, it backfired due to a curse placed upon the Sceptre, and the entire empire was buried under the sand as a result,<ref name="desert royal residence"/> while Hashr himself was forced into the [[Sand-Swept Tomb]].<ref name="sst">[[Sand-Swept Tomb]]</ref>

The city took on the name of the "Citadel" within the Eagle Tribe of the Mesa.[1] During the Emperor's reign, the walls separating the Desert from the rest of Wynn were built.[2]

The installment of a puppet government in Almuj also essentially placed the city under WynnExcavation's control.[6][5]
