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.  | |||
