I am interested in learning more of this city and its mythal, and have found very few resources that mention it.

Cormanthyr - Empire of the Elves mentions it very briefly:

"Possibilities include making a city and all its inhabitants within the mythal fly (the fallen city of Myth Iiscar on the isle of Lantan)..."

And Magic of Faerūn adds a bit more detail, but not much in the way of new information:

"Myth Iiscar: Little is known about this mythal city except that it was built on the isle of Lantan, allowed its inhabitants to fly, and was destroyed at some point. The Lantanese don't reveal any hints about its location, so they either don't know or are good at keeping secrets."

Before I got and question Ed Greenwood and the other Sages of the Realms on the subject (with whom I've already got Lantan related questions waiting in queue), I thought I might ask here for any detail I may have missed.

Any sources, or official lore postings that I've missed somewhere?

I believe that's about it. :)

For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet and excite you... Books are full of the things that you don't get in real life - wonderful, lyrical language, for instance, right off the bat. - Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

Yes, as I recall... it's an area that hasn't received any specific attention in the Realmslore.

In fact, the only other mention I can recall, is in the always wonderful fan-based interpretation on Lantan:- http://www.geocities.com/TimesSquare/Castle/2566/lantan.htm
