Oboro (oh-BOH-roh;[1][2] Japanese: (おぼろ) (ぐう) ; rōmaji: Oboro-gū; literally: "Hazy Palace"; Kamigawan: lit. "occluded" or "misty moon") is the main cloud palace of the Soratami, located in the city of Otawara.

Description

Formerly the exclusive domain of the moonfolk, the floating city of Otawara has opened its doors to intrepid researchers of all kinds. The only place non-moonfolk are still forbidden is Oboro, which is considered sacred ground to the moonfolk.[3] It is kept secret from those who dwell on the grounds of Kamigawa. The only non-Soratami ever to set foot in Oboro were the human disguise-genius Sakashima, the ronin kanji mage Toshiro Umezawa, and the famed Akki wizard Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker.

History

After sustaining damage in the New Phyrexian Invasion, many of its treasures were temporarily moved to a heavily guarded stronghold.[4]
