A long history surrounds the relatively rural and quaint town of Itela. Living with a fragile truce and trade partnership with the northern orc settlement of Trantal further towards the mountain, the people of Itela have made their living off of fishing and hunting in the land around them. However, used as a target by the Infinitum cult to break Bars spirits, the townsfolk were massacred by the very same nature they so often relied upon, with scores of awakened ents slaughtering the populace. After discovering this tragedy and killing the remaining ents ransacking Trantal, Bar-then adopted the lone three surviving children of the massacre. Then in the proceeding months, the town would be revitalized with the displaced populace from Aressas, giving them homes and a new life.
