Koje was a city in the kingdom of Koryo in Kara-Tur around 1357 DR. It lay on the eastern side of Kang Bay.[1][note 1]
History
A giant dragon turtle once threatened Koje, before Xax Chung saved the city. He also slew the tengu Kwi'asp and tamed the witch Zartalla.[2]
Around 1357 DR, some twenty townsfolk were healed by a wandering shukenja. Although the healer did not give their name, the people erected a monument in thanks regardless.[3]
Locations
Merquam Pang, one of the most prosperous merchants of Koryo, who lived in Xi Hulang, owned a shop in Koje. It was heavily guarded by his hirelings.[4]
A prominent local landmark was Jisziat's tower. Xax worked to have the tower cast to the ground.[2]
Notable inhabitants
The warrior Xax Chung was feted as the "hero of Koje" for his efforts in protecting the people of the city. He lived at a large ranch about 1 mile (1.6 km) north of Koje with his family.[2]
