An ancient royal capital of the Malesggite culture founded in about 3275 AS, G'am ‘Ophusír lies in the northern portion of the Shadevan Delta just off the coast of Zeth Baire Island. The city or rather its great stone remains are very poorly known even to scholars. It flourished in the late fourth millennium and early third millennium before Salmakhamer. In the intervening millennia, the site succumbed to slow subsidence until it was swallowed just below the surface of the flow of the Shadew River as it passes through the Shadevan Delta. During the high period of Malesggite Civilization, G'am Ophusír arose as the great spiritual and political capital. The ruins of a great palace complex and processional way persist to this day in the shallow waters of the Shadevan Delta.

The site of G'am Ophusir was discovered in the late 27th century (2692 AI) on land belonging to Metropolitan House Cassidari. Archeological digs were begun tentatively in the 28th century. They were canceled after a few years of preliminary explorations due to complications brought on by unrest in Agogia to the north of the Shadevan Delta.
