Maruukai is the sacred[2] capital city[1] of the Maruuk centaur, located in the north-central Ohn'ahran Plains in the shadow of the mountain Ohn'ahra's Roost. Each season, the centaur clans gather here for the Khural, a time of truce and communion.[2] The Maruuk have returned to this spot for "generations upon generations".[3] Each of the major clans have their own districts in the town, overseen by Clan Teerai and their Khanam Matra from the center. Maruukai serves as the main quest hub in the Ohn'ahran Plains and is home to renown vendors for the Maruuk Centaur faction. It also contains the instance portal to the Nokhud Offensive and acts as the starting point of the dungeon, though the version seen in the dungeon is emptied of almost all of its NPCs.
