Fadrex City is a major trade hub in the Western Dominance of the Final Empire, several month's journey from Urteau.[1] It is located near Chardees.[2] There are a number of canals in the area, including the Conway Canal[3].
The city's natural rock formations make it much more defensible than the larger western city Tremredare. It contains one of the Lord Ruler's storage caches.[2]
After the Collapse, Ashweather Cett makes the city his capital. He takes all of the known allomancers with him when he marches against Luthadel, taking mostly from houses Gardre and Conrad.[1] During the Siege of Luthadel the Obligator Aradan Yomen rises to power. He reimposes the social structures of the Final Empire, throwing balls for the nobility.
The city is besieged by Elend Venture for the cache. The siege ultimately results in an alliance between Venture and Yomen.[4]
