This city, along with the former Teyhyrian town of Kzelter, were conquered by an army of the church of Xvim, (now Bane) led by Teldorn Darkhope. Now everything in the city serves the army and the church, which is also backed by Fzoul Chembryl of the Zhentarim and Exarch of Bane. Remnants of the Academy of the Drawn Sword school have allied with others in Saelmur and are preparing raids against outlying camps of the Banite army. Here Darkhope and Chembryl forged the Scepter of the Tyrant's Eye, the first relic of Xvim and now rededicated to the church of Bane.
Because Mintar lies nearly six hundred miles from Innarlith, the developments in these two cities are unlikely to affect each other.
