Because Minthal is entirely underground, the city's layout is three-dimensional, with tunnels extending upward and downward in complex layers.

|History=Minthal’s origins date back to the earliest Minthari settlements. Over time, the city evolved from a series of primitive tunnels into a highly structured metropolis, shaped by centuries of excavation and refinement.

|Notable Locations=Minthal is divided into multiple districts, each serving a specialized function within the city.

* The Grand Tunnels – Massive arterial tunnels that serve as the city's primary thoroughfares, linking major districts together. These passages are wide enough for entire caravans of goods and workers to travel through.

* The Deep Halls – Built from the natural caverns where the first Minthari built their homes. These halls are a densley packed urban district.

* The Forge Caverns – Gigantic underground smelting chambers harnessing geothermal vents to produce weapons, tools, and armor. These caverns are lined with natural lava tubes, providing an endless source of heat.

* The Flowing Market – A sprawling subterranean bazaar carved into a network of interwoven chambers, where traders exchange goods in winding, tunnel-like stalls.

* The Minthal Vaults – A series of deep vaults, where the Minthari store their most valuable resources.

* The Council Chamber – A vast, highly secure chamber, where the ruling Minthari leaders gather to govern and settle disputes.

|Culture and Society=Minthal is a society built around mining and the acculmation of wealth. As a subterranean species, the Minthari have developed unique customs and a deep connection to their environment.

* Isolationist Yet Pragmatic – While Minthari prefer to remain underground, they maintain selective trade relations with surface dwellers.

|Economy=Minthal thrives on mining, metallurgy, and subterranean resource management.

* Ore & Metal Trade – The city exports high-quality iron, copper, silver, and rare minerals, sought after by weapon forgers and artisans across Adaris.
