**Type:** Coastal City **Location in Faerûn:** Central **Land Region in Faerûn:** Inner Sea **Kingdom or Country (if any):** Independent City-State (*formerly under [[Cormyr]]ean influence*) **Ruler (if any):** A Council of Elders **Note:** A sacred city forever marked by the[[The Time of Troubles]], where the gods walked [[Toril]] and divinity bled into stone. It was here that [[Torm]] struck down [[Bane]], shattering the city and reshaping the faiths of [[Faerûn]]. Though rebuilt, Tantras is remembered as a place of pilgrimage, solemn reverence, and quiet unease; where mortals once witnessed the death of a god. Dio first learned of the battle through [[Candlekeep]]’s preserved accounts, reading of the clash as history long before he understood what it meant for gods to die. Perhaps their tale would help him understand how to sever his tie to [[Beshaba]].
