Tarsis is a small nation in Ansalon, centred around the great trade city of the same name. Prior to the first Cataclysm, Tarsis was a respected Lordcity of the realm, which was located in the forested region to the east of Kharolis and the west of the Silvanesti nation. The minor town and settlements around Tarsis all benefited with the large trade that the lordcity did with the other nations. However the Cataclysm resulted in the Lordcity of Tarsis becoming landlocked in the newly risen Plains of Dust. The nation once known as Tarsis ceased to exist at this point, and the city of Tarsis became little more than a dusty husk of it's former self that was considered part of this arid realm.
In the Age of Mortals, the city of Tarsis experienced a return to the past, when through the magic of the Dragon Overlord Beryl, the sands receded and the city of Tarsis and its surrounding towns were again consumed by forests. The Dark Knights worked with the Tarsian nobles to work for the benefit of the city and its surrounding areas. The Dark Knights ensure the protection of the merchants through lands they control and revenue started to flow through the area once more. With a boom in prosperity for the city of Tarsis, as well as the surrounding areas, Ansalon has seen a return of the nation of Tarsis in the area between Kharolis and the Plains of Dust.
