Torval is the city-state of Elsweyr's spiritual and temporal ruler, the Mane.[1] The Mane and his tribe live in the city in stately palaces built from massive timbers of a Valenwood oak, sometimes taken from waylaid Bosmeri wood caravans,[2] as their borders are only a few hundred miles away from the city.[1] Symmetrical sugarcane gardens surround the palaces where the Mane, with his massive headdress, is often found in meditation atop his palanquin held up by inexhaustible cathay-raht servants.[1] Because moon sugar is considered one of the holiest substances in Khajiit religion, outsiders are traditionally kept out of these estates.[1] The city was once home to a gladiatorial team called the Firedrakes.[oog 1] Pelagius Septim III lived in Torval's asylum almost until his death in 3E 153.[3]
