Qohor

Qohor is one of the nine Free Cities in western Essos, sandwiched between the Narrow Sea and the grass plains held by the Dothraki. It is located several weeks' ride east of Pentos.

The khalasar of Khal Drogo passes close to Qohor during their journey to Vaes Dothrak. Ser Jorah Mormont takes advantage of their proximity to procure more supplies.

In the books
In the Song of Ice and Fire novels, Qohor lies due east of Pentos, close to the edge of the Dothraki Sea. Its proximity would make it vulnerable to Dothraki attack, and shortly after the fall of Valyria (of which empire Qohor was an outpost) the Dothraki indeed attempted to sack it. However, the governor purchased three thousand Unsullied, warrior-eunuchs from Slaver's Bay, to help bolster the garrison. The Dothraki lost thousands upon thousands of men and horses upon the Unsullied shield-wall, including their khal and most of his bloodriders. Though they reduced the Unsullied to a handful of men, the remaining Dothraki honoured their achievement and spared the city. Since that time Qohor has been guarded by an Unsullied garrison and the Dothraki have not attempted to attack it again.

Qohor is famed for its blacksmiths, craftsmen and metal-workers. Its citizens worship a deity known as the Black Goat.
