Caithi (pronounced KAI-thee, with a soft th) is a small city in northern Talmithe. While formally a temple-town under the control of the local clergy of Thalan, in practice it is largely governed as an athumate under the control of Great House Thevrumines, though the local temples does exert a great deal of influence in its laws and in its relations with the many traders who come to visit. Caithi is a regional mercantile center, with caravans from Great House Alchumena, the lizardfolk and dwarves of Xatabra, and even some of the tribes from north of the Cracked Fangs all regularly converging on the city.
