Rhotae is a town of the Western Empire owned by the archon Desporion of the Lonalion clan.
The villages of Leblenion, Thersenion, and Carphenion are bound to the town.
Description[]
Rhotae is a former Palaic hill-fort in the shadow of the basalt slab of Mount Erithrys, once known as Rotash. It fell to the Empire shortly after Lageta. The Palaic chief here, when he heard of what happened to his neighbor, slaughtered a dozen imperial citizens under his protection. The eccentric long-haired general Sarapios led the punitive column that took Rotash and burned it to the ground. "Lageta we took treacherously but with little bloodshed. Rotash we took honorably, with great bloodshed," he supposedly said afterwards. "Both will be remembered as a stain on our name. The victor always takes the blame, but keeps the gold."[1]
Tournaments[]
No information is currently known about tournaments.
Economy[]
Because two of Rhotae's villages produce large amounts of Grain, the town will not suffer from starvation as often as other towns allowing Rhotae to become prosperous. The town begins the game with a Brewery, Linen Weavery, and Wool Weavery.
Trivia[]
According to the Game's settlements.xml file, Rhotae is named after the Rhotians, who are "probably a tribe."
