''"An Aluvian outpost located within the Dires, Fort Tethana has been plagued with attacks from renegades. At one point the commander at Tethana reached out to the Viamontians in search of assistance. Instead of receiving help, the commander was turned mad and hope of the fort ever being freed seemed lost." --[[Fort Tethana (Town Network Sign)|Town Network Sign]]''

* This fortified settlement is located at 1.5N, 71.8W in the northern [[Direlands]].
* In the early days, Fort Tethana was a thriving center for trade and social activity.  Fueled by the high prices the vendors would pay for goods and the proximity of adventuresome Dires hunting grounds, people came from far and wide to trade and socialize. ''"ne1 have portal to teth?"''
* Under the guise of "Fair Trade" the vendors across [[Dereth]] standardized their buy and resale rates, which ended many merchant's profitable trade of buying from a [[Master Mage]] or other inexpensive vendor and selling these goods in Fort Tethana or other Dires towns.
* It did not take long for Fort Tethana to become a far less traveled destination, which was very unfortunate, as a large group of [[Renegade]]s, an alliance of [[Lugian]]s and [[Tumerok]]s, set up nearby and layed seige to the hapless town.
* Having received no help from High Queen [[Elysa Strathelar]], Tethana Commander [[Jared Kurth]] turned to the Viamontians for help.  Instead he was turned into a ravening monster by the power-mad [[Count Dardante]].  The [[Renegade]] siege remains unlifted to this day.
* Fort Tethana can be reached through the [[Town Network]]'s Aluvian (North) branch, or through the [[Colossus Foundary]], one of the [[Statue Dungeons]].  These statues can be found in [[Ayan Baqur]], [[Wai Jhou]], and [[Kara]].
