Tire

Tire is the fifth of twelve minor cities of the southern continent – all found between Padora and the Temple of Travellers' Repose, and all north of the equator – which the greatly-reduced Black Company rapidly passed through in Shadow Games. This occurred during their southward journey toward their fabled origin of Khatovar after the Battle of the Barrowland.

Weeks is the nearest city to its north, and Raxle is the nearest city south of Tire.

Croaker records nothing distinctive about Tire in his Annals except that it was located where the world "became warmer and the cities became more scattered." He also wrote that its name, as well as the names of Raxle, Slight, and Nab and Nod, "faded to legend and memories from the Annals" since the historical Black Company had passed through this region more than a century before.
