Many centuries ago, when the [[Burning Times]] had engulfed [[Stavenn]] and magick users fell to the sword | |||
and the flame, several [[sidhe]] families of Stavennite nobles fled the city and formed a small | |||
settlement on [[Lake Tageen]] which became known as '''Cetara'''. The modern villagers of Cetara are | |||
descendants of the nobles as well as their servants and retainers. Although Cetarans have | |||
traditionally subsisted on fishing and some local crafting, they have retained the traditions of | |||
their ancestors. | |||
The village is informally ruled by the witches of Cetara, as through the years the cult of the dark | |||
arts has become their sole domain. Until recently, a powerful spell maintained by the village's | |||
practitioners hid the settlement from the view of the world, although it appears they have long held | |||
a secret trade with the village of [[Annona]]. This relationship has, however, been one of necessity | |||
rather than friendship, as the darker Cetarans hold little but hatred for the simple farmers of the | |||
village. | |||
Proud, arrogant, and often fairly surly, Cetarans hold a great deal of respect for dark magick and | |||
still consider themselves as having very strong ties to Stavenn despite their long isolation. Those | |||
traveling to the village must be careful not to become embroiled in the many mysteries and dark | |||
plots that simmer there, for the dark arts are alive and well in the shadowed streets of Cetara. | |||
