Semehol¶
Semehol is a ruined town in South Tharxax, just southwest of the Slime Island. Once a highly effective industrial town specializing in refining the slime from the nearby island, it was brutally destroyed by the forces of the Empire of Maelihs after its Drehmari population attempted a revolt against the Burnt Generals.
Location
Approximate Coordinates: -1750, 65, 3885
Today, the ruins of the town are found inhabited by hostile Maelmari, just outside of Tharxax City.
Layout¶
Semehol straddles both sides of a river that leads from the Slime Island to the Tharxax Sea.
Immediately upon entering from the main road, players will find the Tattered Pamphlet book in the first ruined building on the left. A destroyed building on the right is full of skulls, likely indicating a mass grave. It holds a Runic Catalyst.
Further into the town, the top floor of a house near the ruined Terminus tower holds the final chapter of Tharhan: A Land of Conquest. On the other side of this tower, a 1x1 hole in the ground reveals a quartz slab. Dig through it for another Runic Catalyst.
A green-topped building in the east is home to a Maelmari Berserker spawner, as well as the Sliming Trousers artifact.
Lore¶
The Drehmari inhabitants of Semehol were lorded over by the Empire of Maelihs for many years. Their primary industry was slime: slime mined from the Slime Island just to the northeast was refined here, then sent to Tharxax City.
At some point in the relatively recent past, the workers of Semehol attempted to stage a rebellion against the Third Burnt General, Ethgar. They failed, and the entire Drehmari population of the town was slaughtered by his army.
