Shamballah is a mythical city hidden in inner Asia heavily populated with plant life. The legendary Cintamanni Stone was to be hidden in here and psychopathic war criminal Zoran Lazarevic and his army of wild Merceneries were on a trail to find the stone, which would grant him and his army unstoppable power. Nathan Drake raced to find the hidden city in order to find and destroy the stone during Uncharted 2: Among Thieves. Zoran and Nate both find the hidden city at the same time, and Nate is left to fight through power hungry soldiers and super powered Guardians in order to get to the stone before Zoran. Nate discovers that Marco Polo, who set out to find the stone had gotten it wrong, that the stone was fossilized resin and the real power came from tree sap. Zoran consumed the sap and gained legendary powers, but was weakened by Nate in a final showdown and killed by the Guardians, who along with Zoran were crushed by the city's rubble after its destruction at Nate's hands.
