On 4 Hollow 14 LE, in the subterranean reaches of Raibyr, a group of Fomorian and their slaves staked out the perimeter of a settlement named Sul'tach. Wanderers following demon clues, they were one of the splinter groups that came with the death of the Fomorian hero Borri. The Fomorian founders of Sul'tach were all practiced in the magical arts, the "Blazing Hand of Borri", and keepers of ancient scrolls plundered from the demons at Pulax. These scrolls, written by Zuggtmoy, once master of Pulax in the Demon Spawn War(89 GE - 269 GE) pointed to areas which given enough time, would become a Seam Portal. Sul'tach was founded near this mud lake, a place tainted by entropic energy, pollution of the Creation War(1486 DE - 8777 DE).
Sul'tach's leaders used wealth plundered from their former slave master Zuggtmoy, paying unscrupulous earth elementals who then violated one of Geb's laws, accelerating a natural process that normally takes many centuries. In 94 LE, within sight of Sul'tach's Muddy Port, the Seam Portal of Baruk-Sul was opened, making Sul'tach a port of the Earth Seam.
