Ehrlitan, the holy coastal city of Seven Cities, first appears in Deadhouse Gates as a strategic port with the imposing Caravan Gate, the Jen'rahb mesa, and its distinctive overgrown gardens. Throughout the series, it evolves from a mere waypoint for refugees fleeing the Whirlwind rebellion into a crucial nexus of resistance and imperial control. The city's layered history and religious significance make it a recurring focal point for both Malazan occupation forces and local resistance movements, embodying the broader tensions between colonizer and colonized across the Seven Cities campaigns.
