Orazca, the legendary Golden City, is an ancient metropolis hidden in the uncharted jungles of the continent of Ixalan, which is located on the plane of the same name.[1] Orazca houses a powerful item, called the Immortal Sun. It is said that who succeeds in controlling this city will wield the greatest power of the plane.
Description
Orazca was the Sun Empire’s capital for many centuries, and tribute from across the breadth of Ixalan was brought to adorn its palaces and temples. Gold covers nearly every building in the city, and jade inlays reflect the influence of the ancient merfolk who shared Orazca with the humans of the empire. But the world has since closed up over the golden city, hiding its secrets and its treasures from all who seek it. For a long time, three golden spires were its only visible signs where they rose above the forest floor.[2]
Orazca was abandonded after emperor Apatzec Intli was gifted the Immortal Sun by its guardian and misused it.[3] He wielded the artifact without any wisdom or restraint and the city was ruined. The Immortal Sun was taken away from the humans and gifted to the merfolk River Heralds instead.
The merfolk River Heralds had taken it on themselves to defend the Golden City since they believed that no one should have the power that lies inside of there. To protect its secrets, they only kind of knew where it was, but not the exact location. They had been making sure no one gets there for centuries. In the end it was Kumena, one of their own, who breached the security and seated himself in the Threefold Temple at the pinnacle of the city. He awoke the ciy and the creatures within, but was bested shortly after by the combined efforts of the vampires Vona and Mavren Fein. They quickly threw him out of the window of the Tower of Triumph.[4]
After the vampires of the Legion of Dusk, came Huatli and her Sun Empire compatriots, Angrath and his pirate crew, and the unlikely couple of Vraska and Jace.
