'''Mort'ton''' is located in [[Morytania]], south of the [[Mort Myre Swamp]]. The town is populated with [[undead]], like the [[afflicted]] and [[Loar Shade|shades]]. The town has a [[general store]] and is the start for the [[Shades of Mort'ton]] [[quest]] and the [[Shades of Mort'ton (minigame)|Shades of Mort'ton]] [[minigame]]. If you are doing the Shades of Mort'ton quest it is best for players to go to [[world]] 377 to build the temple as most people are there building the temple. [[Barrows]] can be found just east of the city.

==History==
Mort'ton was once a quiet market town that specialised in death. By using the natural caves underneath the town as tombs, Mort'ton became a centre for burials. Unfortunately, a strange mist sent from the [[Sanguinesti region]] cursed the villagers of Mort'ton, turning them into [[afflicted]]. Some of the dead interred below began to appear on the surface, known as shades.

Only the weakest of the shades, called [[Loar shade]]s, roam the surface around Mort'ton. The stronger shades - [[Phrin Shade|phrin]], [[Riyl Shade|riyl]], [[Asyn Shade|asyn]], [[Fiyr Shade|fiyr]] and [[Urium Shade|urium]] shades reside in the caves that they were buried in. Whatever dark force that revived them keeps them in Mort'ton, as none of these shades have ever been seen in Mort Myre.
