Greetings, Carants!
Today we journey into the living heart of Teer Fradee, where the island’s first children—the Teer Fradeans—have woven their destinies with the land itself for centuries.
From the moment you set foot on this mysterious shore in GreedFall II, you can understand their influence: a tapestry of clans, each with its own story, yet bound by a shared language - the Yecht Fradí - faith, and an unbreakable bond to nature.
Ancient Roots and First Contact
Long before any “people of the sea” ever glimpsed the ocean horizon, the Teer Fradeans thrived on the island. They sculpted villages in harmony with the forest, mountain and streams—never as conquerors, but as caretakers. When the first merchants arrived, the islanders greeted them with cautious hospitality. Yet, as axes rang through sacred groves and wells ran dry beneath foreigners' greedy hands, the Teer Fradeans’ true spirit awoke.
Magic Born of the Land
In desperation, the chiefs ascended to the volcano’s rim to plead with “En on míl frichtimen”, the thousand-faced island deity. A pact was forged: magic would flow through chosen few—the on ol menawí—but at a cost. Gifted with natural magic, they draw power from sacred sites, their bodies gradually entwining with moss, leaves, and bark. Linking themselves to the land transforms them into colossal Nádaig, guardians who stride forth to protect the land. Their emergence drove the invaders from Teer Fradee, sealing both victory and sacrifice into legend.
Clans, Chiefs, and the High Monarch
Though united by language and belief, each mál (“chief”) leads a tribe with its own temperament toward the newcomers—some trade, some war, some watch and wait. In times of strife, these chiefs gather to elect a High Monarch, who serves as supreme judge, mediator, and spiritual beacon. Under their rule, the Teer Fradeans stand as one body with many faces.
Villages and Choices
From the Sísaíg Cnámeis (“Bone Blowers”) to Cengeden Anedas (“Tempest Warriors”), each tribe dwells in villages steeped in lore. From Ullan in Vígnámrí, Bladníd in Vedrhais, Dunncas in Vígyígidaw—and many more in hidden hamlets whose names echo through forest and stone.
As the main character in GreedFall 2, in your lakeside home, you’ll face choices that ripple through every clan. Some see “renaigsa” as allies in trade and progress; others, like one of their wise doneigada Mev, warn that peace may be the calm before another tempest.
The Uprooted and Tomorrow’s Guardians
The Uprooted are those who were taken from Teer Fradee and enslaved by the Gacaneans. Though scattered and marked by hardship, they remain bound to the island through ancestral ties and latent magic. Many believe they will one day rise to reclaim what was taken from them.
As a Teer Fradean in GreedFall 2, every choice you make sends ripples across Teer Fradee—and far beyond its shores. Will you make choices based on your ancestors' history and past, or forge a new path for the island and its people? The fate of this world lies in your hands… and that’s just the beginning.
Next up, we’ll hoist the sails and delve into the world of the Nauts—uncovering their culture, daring exploits, and the waves of change they may bring. Stay tuned!
