History

Taking their name from the majestic T'aresh mountains, the house settled in the foothills where the Ath'rel'ithar (Winds of Frozen Tears) from the polar ice caps collide with the warmer air from the south. These winds often cover the region in heavy snowfall, and it's not unusual for them to develop into blizzards that dump 2 meters worth of snow in one night. During summer, they often cause magnificent thunderstorms - dangerous for anyone caught outside, but delighful to the t'areshsu nonetheless.
Their history is surprisingly peaceful for Rihannsu, a fact they attribute to the circumstance that no one really wants to go up against such a lively people over a territory that is so scarce in resources.

Famous for their colorful tapestries and graceful sculptures, s`T'areshi also manufactures highly prized jewelry from the semi-precious gems found in their mountains. The Ehrie Fvuras (a type of pearly green verdite) is especially sought after and the skills of T'areshsu jewelers in working this stone are second to none.
