An ancient city of Kalama now sunken past the shore of Isiagos Island, Hwalaka was reputed by Kalaman legends to have been founded before the Flood of Aturyanda. The city was destroyed by the Flood of Aturyanda, but the site later emerged from the flood due the relatively high location on the coast of what was then Isiagos Island. The site was not inhabited again until recolonization during the Sharakshaya Dynasty (7,284 AS to 7,237 AS). It was subsequently swallowed up again by rising sea levels in very ancient times.

Hwalaka was considered legendary until discovered in the late twenty-seventh century (2688) based upon Kalaman texts that described its location and history. An Ithradic dwarf, Lakhiadáin Urishad Agusainak, led a team that found and partially excavated the site, 2688 to 2689, using new aquatic titancraft equipment.
