Once the bane of spelling students across Sapience, comparable only perhaps to the likes of Zsarachnor, the Aeraithian Falls housed a community of winged humanoids in the cliffs of the Southern Vashnars.
922 AF, the village of Aeraithian Falls was assailed by the corrupted brambles of Yggdrasil during the continued incursion led by Pazuzu and his demonic Vigil. The brambles churned in the wake of the lost battle and the World Tree receded its touch upon the Prime Material Plane, taking with it the foundation that anchored the once-quaint village to Creation and Aeraithian Falls ceased to exist.
Geography
The Falls were found at the end of an unnamed icy river that flowed through the Vashnars. The village itself was built vertically into the cliffs overlooking the Sea of Screamed Prayers. The layout of the town, however, could be quite confusing to outsiders, as it was quite different from traditional villages.
Inhabitants
The village was inhabited by a race known as the Aeraithians. Notable Aeraithians include:
Culture
The Aeraithians had their own native language, which was not well-known to the outside world. They spoke some common Achaean, but many of them had fairly thick accents. For example, the word "nice" often became "nitsk". The inhabitants practiced a religion that held the waters of the Falls sacred, and they also revered the element of Air. A local shaman seemed to be the religious leader, spending his time creating magical concoctions. The main food source for the village was fish, which were collected by fishermen on the rooftops. The village leaders were friendly and welcoming to outsiders, though the average villager did shy away from strangers.
