Ivory City was a large beautiful city of aerial bridges and white aqueducts and was populated by the followers of Sun God, and protected by Sun Lord, Sevras and Sun Prince.[1][2]

Description

The graceful buildings were constructed of pristine white stone, with vibrant green vines crawling up their walls. Here and there, sparkling water murmured as it flowed through carved channels. Incredible aerial bridges and arching aqueducts connected dozens of flying islands together.

Now that the sun had risen, thousands upon thousands of people poured onto the streets. All of them looked healthy and beautiful, their tan, dewy skin covered by white garments.

— Description of Ivory City,
Chapter 732 Sevras

The Ivory City is a wondrous place, beautiful, peaceful, and full of life, with people who are warm, kind and care deeply for their neighbors. It has dozens of flourishing islands, all connected into a single whole by aerial bridges and arching aqueducts built of white stone. It was like a beautiful paradise, a place that all human cities should strive to be.[3]

The Ivory Island was separated from the rest of the city by a wide chasm. It had been once connected to seven islands by seven unbreakable chains. There were several arching bridges leading up to it, but the majority of them had long since collapsed.[4]

Location

Directly to the east of the Red Colosseum, a long distance away, lay this city. It is also where the prison of Hope is.[5]

Inhabitants

The people of the Ivory City, just like those we know in the waking world, have the same values, ideals, and regard for decency and human life.[3]

Background

The Ivory City was indeed prosperous, safe, and beautiful because of the dragon. Its people were protected and provided for by the dragon. But in return, the dragon only asked for one thing, to feed him with human flesh. Seven sacrifices had to be made to him every month, from the ranks of the citizens. Being devoured by the dragon was considered to be a sacred honor, and having a loved one chosen as a sacrifice was a cause for celebration.[6]

The dragon never dictated who had to be fed to him. But the people of the Ivory City wanted above all else to please the dragon. So, they always chose the best and the brightest, the young heroes who had just returned from a triumphant war.[6]

As it turned out, the whole city was insane because the dragon did not actually ask to sacrifice anyone, or anything, to him.[6]

History

The visage of the Twisted Rock as it had been in the future…

All of its surface had been nothing but an uneven expanse of dark stone. That stone, however, had looked really strange. It was as if once, a long time ago, it had been melted by unimaginable heat and then solidified again, creating strange shapes and swirls.

Here and there, blackened bones had protruded from the molten stone, telling the tale of countless humans and beasts who had drowned in that scorching inferno. The sight of them was eerie and disturbing, like something torn from the actual hell.

Chapter 732 Sevras

In the end when Sevras succumbed to his madness, thousands of people were burned to death, their flesh reduced to ashes. The place became a scorching hell, and the stone itself melted into glowing lava. Cries of pain and fear filled the air. Some survived and tried to escape, but failed. This was the answer the Ivory Lord sent to their prayers.[7]

Trivia

  • According to Kai, the people of Ivory City were the most disgusting thing he have ever seen due to being ecstatic to sacrifice their loved ones to the dragon.[6]
