Ferngravellia

The original capital of Ezermethalon, Ferngravellia is unofficially regarded by ELotH:TES fans as the "city of cannon-fodder" or "matchstick city"--because its every canonical appearance ends in the city's utter decimation. Perhaps its most famous destruction was at the hands of Ruckwort Dakwuf in 9150, after which New Capitol City became the capital of Ezermethalon on account of the citizens of Ezermethalon were tired of rebuilding their capital.

Which makes their persistent rebuilding all the more bizarre.
