Re was once the original home of the Atiarel. Under the ever-young Atiarel herself, the city was long run by the kings Slamar and Silmarion. For long centuries, life flourished in this great city to the north, north of the Valley of Oblivion. But everything was to change with the invasion of the Anscharon.
Through a trick and the domination of the Son of Silmarion, the Ansharon managed to open the gates of the city. They entered the city and extinguished almost all life. In death, Silmarion cursed his son, whose name would now be forever unnamed. Henceforth he is known as the Dun, who, immortal and cursed, should forever seek his fortune in surrendering to perpetual greed.
Re fell into complete decay as a city, and the Atiarel retreated to the high mountains, where they henceforth called themselves Aldahar. If a traveler manages to pass through the Valley of Oblivion, he may come across the ruins of the once great and magnificent city.
