Kadishu is a noncombat location found within the Bhashea region in Lost Kingdoms II. It is the third location visited in the story.
Appearance
Kadishu is a small town, far away from conflict. It has roads that lead to the Card Shop and Jarvi's House. Other significant landmarks are a large fountain in the middle of the town, a large statue surrounded by pillars and water, a bridge and stairway that connect to a hill above Kadishu, and a statue of Queen Katia above said hill.
There are also several people who deal in cards in Kadishu. A rogue can be found behind the water-surrounded statue selling Capture Cards for an increasing fee of gold pieces. A man near the fountain will combine cards to create a brand new card, with varying options every time the player talks to him. Throughout the game, there is also trash around Kadishu that can be picked up and tossed into a trashcan near the fountain. Doing so enough times will reward the player with a card.

Trash Collecting (optional)
At 3 points in the game, 3 pieces trash will be scattered around Kadishu. By collecting all 3 pieces and throwing them away in the trashcan by the fountain, Tara will find a card.
If the story has progressed to the point where another reward is available but the previous reward has not been obtained yet, both the placement of the pieces trash and the reward for collecting them will stay the same until the earlier available reward has been obtained.
Trash Collecting 1
The first time Tara can collect trash is after the first mission for Bhashea High Road has been completed. The reward for cleaning up Kadishu this time is a Leprechaun card.
The first of these pieces of trash is by the well close to the horse stable, the second is on the pavement around the fountain, and the third is by the stairs leading to the large statue.
Trash Collecting 2
The second time Tara can collect trash is after the mission for Lower Chambers has been completed. The reward for cleaning up Kadishu this time is a SuperScrubber card.
The first of these pieces of trash is on the road to the fountain, the second is in front of the steps by the fountain, and the third is in front of the card display on the right of the Card Shop.
Trash Collecting 3
The third and final time Tara can collect trash is after the first mission of Royal Tower, Lower has been completed. The reward for cleaning up Kadishu this time is a Larval Fly card.
The first of these 3 pieces of trash is by the side of the steps on the side of the open building, the second by the 2 barrels past the steps of the same building, and the third is by the statue of Queen Katia.

Trivia
- Buying Capture Cards from the rogue prompts comedic responses from Tara. Each price increment has its own unique dialog, which can be read below:
| # of purchases | Rogue | Tara's response |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | Hey Lady... That's a nice Runestone... For a mere 1000 gold pieces, I'll give you the best card you ever saw. | Here are the 1000 Gold Pieces. Get bent! |
| 1 | Ah, you again... Can't stay away, can you?I've got a Capture card,but it will cost you 2000 in gold. | Give me the card No deal |
| 2 | Capture cards are now 3000. The price just keeps going up... | Here's your lousy 3000! I'm not that desperate. |
| 3 | A Capture card will run you 5000 now. Seems everybody wants one... | Fine, whatever, here's the money No way am I paying 5000 gold! |
| 4 | Capture cards are now 7000. Don't you just hate inflation? | Take your money and shut up. Get lost, scumbag! |
| 5 | I'll have to ask for 10,000 for a Capture card now. Do you even have 10,000 pieces of gold? | 10,000? No problem. That's too rich for my blood. |
| 6 | The price just keeps going up. Capture cards are now 15,000. | Chump change. Take it. Are you nuts? |
| 7 | Today, and today only, I'll give you a Capture card for 1,000! | You got a deal Thanks, but no thanks |

| 9 | I can't let you have a Capture card for less than 30000. Still want it? | Yes, it's worth every penny. Hey! I'm not a walking goldmine! |
| 10 | Capture cards are now going for 50,000 big ones. You got the gold? | Sure, right here in my purse... No way I'm paying that, dirtball! |
| 11 | Capture cards are 50,000, and I can honestly say, they won't go higher. | What's 50,000 between friends? I don't need your fancy card! |
- The statue surrounded by water uses the same model as some statues from Lost Kingdoms. In the first game, one of these can be seen on the Bridge of Sarvan, and another is at Lake Bestriel. In Lost Kingdoms II, other smaller statues resembling the one in Kadishu can be found on Bhashea High Road and in Bhashea Castle.
- Although grassy instead of being paved over, the path through the exit on the hill at Kadishu is shaped like it has stairs. Whether or not the developers intended for the path to have stairs is unknown.
- After two points in the game, two NPCs in Kadishu will have different dialogue. The young woman on the path leading to Jarvi's House will have something new to say after Jarvi is rescued in Gromtull Desert, while the townsman by the exit on the hill will have something new to talk about after the second mission at Bhashea High Road. The latter NPC cannot be found after the first mission in Royal Tower, Lower.
