Editing Falatacot (section)

=== From Dereth back to Dericost ===
Some Falatacot fled from Killiakta to [[Dericost]] after darkness and cold put their gods to sleep.<ref>2000/11 [[Should the Stars Fall]] - [[Campaign Journal]]</ref> They wandered into the holds of their cousins, the Dericost and were tolerated as they shared their arts.<ref name=TomeElements>2002/04 [[Betrayal]] - [[Tome of the Elements]]</ref> Although uncontested in the rule of its continent for thousands of years, the Kingdom of Dericost truly rose to prominence with the arrival of the Falatacot refugees, who fled the island of Dereth due to global cooling of Auberean. In exchange for sanctuary in Dericost lands, the Falatacot shared their worship of the Old Ones and their magical knowledge. They specifically shared their knowledge of blood, death and entropy magics.

At the end of the [[Millennium War]], after nearly 1,000 years of conflict, the Haebrous and Dericost lands were devastated. As the war turns against them, the [[Latzimestal]] decide they have lost the blessing of the Old Ones and that the remaining Falatacot are to blame. They set about exterminating the few Falatacot still in the Kingdom.<ref name=HistoryAubereanVolI>[[The History of Auberean/Volume I: Empires Clashing (-30,000 to -9,000)]]</ref>

A Falatacot woman who had escaped the Lords' purge led [[Jailne]] and [[Alaidain]] through the trackless tunnels of [[Vasmora]] into the palace of [[Sarvien II]]. In a pitched battle, the Haebrous and Yalaini forces destroyed Sarvien and his Lich advisors, but the struggle costed Jailne his life.As Sarvien passes into true death, he utters a prophecy from the [[Book of Eibhil]], known as the Fivefold Curse.<ref>2000/08 [[Taste of Twilight]] - [[Mu-Miyah Note Translation]]</ref><ref name="LayLeikotha">[[AC:DM CD Lore/Dericost Texts/The Lay of Leikotha]]</ref>

This Falatacot woman might be one of the ancestors of Lady [[Adja]]as implied by a letter to her by Lady [[Maila Realaidain]]<ref>2000/11 - [[Should the Stars Fall]] - [[Translated Letter (Tear-Stained Parchment)]]</ref><ref>[[AC:DM CD Lore/Late Dereth Texts/Communion]]</ref> and utterances of representatives of the [[Eldrytch Web]], [[Radiant Blood]] and [[Celestial Hand]] <ref name="Luciana du Maki">2008/08 - [[Ancient Powers]] - [[Luciana du Maki#Lore & Dialog]]</ref>

In general, it is said that the Falatacot were absorbed into the ranks of their cousins, such as the Gelid, and that their knowledge might be lost to the other races.<ref name=TomeElements>2002/04 [[Betrayal]] - [[Tome of the Elements]]</ref>
