Padooth

Padooth is one of the cities of Siriad. It was founded by Adam after Cain killed Abel. A ring of mountains surrounds the plain on which the city rests, but one lone mountain stands at the center of Padooth. On this mountain, citizens make sacrifices to the Almighty under the supervision of Enosh or Keenan, his son.

Because of its seclusion, Padooth is very traditional in its style. The homes tend to have a central courtyard surrounded on three sides by the home and closed to the public by a fence on the fourth side. The upper level of a home in Padooth is an open roof where women frequently do their laundry. It is because of this seclusion that all the people of Siriad are referred to as "backmountains."

Padooth is the home of Enosh. Prior to the arrival of the Iyr, Padooth was a city-state. After the Iyr united the rest of Eden into Razmadda, Siriad also decided to unite. At that time, Padooth, Thoheleth, and Meshfaht all came under Enosh's rule. However, the leaders of Thoheleth and Meshfaht are independent in as much as they are some distance from Enosh. They make all the decisions for their cities unless it is concerning their interactions with Razmadda. They also have an unlimited free trade agreement between the cities that has allowed each city to specialize in its products. In this sense, they are similar to the way the United States was governed prior to the Civil War.
