About Shadar Logoth
Shadar Logoth stands in the forests east of Baerlon, near the Arinelle. Once it was Aridhol, one of the Ten Nations, until its people fought the Shadow with a hatred so deep that they became something worse. The city destroyed itself, and a living evil called Mashadar still drifts through its streets as a silver fog.
In The Eye of the World, Moiraine leads the fugitives here to hide from Trollocs. Mat takes a ruby-hilted dagger from the ruins, and the group is scattered as they flee.
Spoiler note: this guide mentions events up to The Eye of the World.
