Here the Old Kings finded the Sefenlands, and were then usurped by the House of Eleses, who were usurped by the Hairas Emperors, who were usurped by the Messons, who became the Messolorihas in the Delkish Empire. Later, the Imperial Monarchy was finded once again by the House of Eres, who instead based their Empire in Delkeye. White-Sphinx was built by Old King Dos, at the behest of his wife, Queen Kazia of Clan Termite Tower of Neres. The Termite Tower was also built in her honor, as the then-tallest structure in the Sefenlands, and 2nd tallest-structure on this Earth, behind only the Great Pyramid of the Badlands.

The Termite Tower was also built in her honor, as the then-tallest structure in the Sefenlands, and 2nd tallest-structure on this Earth, behind only the Great Pyramid of the Badlands. However, both Topok Tower, and the Eyes-&-Ears of Telf stand above it. The Eyes-&-Ears is taller than Topok Tower, and centuries older. White-Sphinx was named for the Royal Palace of the Old Kings, which was torn down by Emperor Messink Messon. This royal palace was in the shape of a white sphinx. In its place was built Blood Castle, where Messink's descendants ruled from. Messink ruled from Messink's Keep, and his son Makexes respected this, building Blood Castle with Oporish slaves. White-Sphinx is a sprawling city, extending out in the shape of a reverse-Billow's Sea from White-Sphinx. It has a population of 960,000, most of whom subsist off of fish. There are caves beneath Blood Castle, which are used by common folk to cross over to Kaz's Shore, and fish. Cattle are especially common in this city, as well as pigs. White-Sphinx is not an especially-rich city, nor an especially-poor one. Its greatest monument is the City of the Red Wheelhouse.
