Tlanxla, also called the "City of the Sky" or the "City of the Heavens," was a former temple-city of the Lizardmen located directly west of the temple-city of Tlaxtlan in central Lustria. Very little is known about the city, other than the fact that it, along with the Temple-Cities of Huatl and Xhotl were the first to fall in quick succession to the Daemonic Hordes of Chaos during the time of the Great Catastrophe.[1a]
It is often the first temple-city outsiders encounter thanks to its prominent place on the Amaxon River. Its lower levels have been plundered many times. Despite this, Tlanxla is not truly abandoned. High above the canopy, it still houses innumerable Terradons and Ripperdactyls. Skinks maintain these roosts and it would be difficult to distinguish the city's upper reaches from the bustle of a "living" temple-city barrio.[2a]
