Urshu (pronounced UR-shoo) is a city in the Viridian province of Andera. Located on the eastern edge of the central Thadrian highlands, it is far larger than any other settlement surrounding it. Urshu is built upon, and into, the ruins of an ancient cyclopean city - though large parts of the old city have been broken up for materials to expand Urshu, significant parts still remain, such as the great cultic shrines on the eastern side of the city to now-forgotten cyclopean deities.

Several miles to the southwest of Urshu massive reliefs of the twin deities Hutena and Hutellura can be found etched onto an 80 foot tall cliff face.
