North of New Thera has been known by a handful of names throughout its life. Immediately following the destruction of Thera by the [[Vertani]], the place was known as simply "a junction on the Prelatorian Highway." Shortly after, it came to be known as "'''North of the Ruins of Thera'''." Perhaps most famously, however, is its original name - '''North of Thera'''. This is the name it bore for centuries, and it is the one former name that is still in common use today, as evidenced by its most popular sobriquet. | North of New Thera has been known by a handful of names throughout its life.

During the [[Vertani War]], NoT was once planned by the Vertani to be the site of their next fortress. However, their ritual was interrupted by violence, and the four amber-gold cornerstones, all that ever rose of the fortress, remained at this junction on the highway for many years, though they were eventually melted down to construct the marbled statue of [[Ariel]], deceased former mayor of "Old Thera", that now sits at the Theran town centre. | During the [[Vertani War]], NoT was once planned by the Vertani to be the site of their next fortress.
