History
The Witch's Moon
For generations Pha'ka had been known by the people of Alimus as The Witch's Moon. Tameck believed that the story behind it getting that name is riddled with inaccuracies and gives their family a bad name. The story goes that when the mining facility was first prospecting their istallation on Pha'ka, the moon was inhabited by a small group of colonists. Tameck's great-great-grandmother, Terra Perlund, refused to respect their claim to the land and forced those who didnt leave to work as mining labour (a legal move as the moon was officially uninhabited). Once work began, the foreign workers began contracting an unknown infection, many were violently ill and there were rumours of deaths at the time. The colony's elder and leader swore that they had nothing to do with the infection but that she could heal the afflicted if Terra promised to let the rest of her people go free. Terra agreed once she herself began to show symptoms. The remaining colonists were released and the elder led Terra to an underground tunnel filled with bioluminescent lights and a large plant in the center of a pool. The elder explained that the plant was the source of a local flora, that the pollen it produced was toxic to lifeforms and the companies digging had unleashed it onto the miners. The colonists had been eating the fauna it produced for years which gave them better chance at fighting the illness. Talin perlund, Tameck's Son, had always been fascinated with the story despite his fathers reservations. Yet, there was an element of the story that Tameck had always held back, even from his son; a detail that only the perlund family knew and one that Tameck was secretly worried was true. While in captivity, the Elder bore a curse on Terra Perlund."For as long as your greed should hold you, and you take this place as your own; your blood will remain tainted and the moon shall bind you to us in turn."
Visitors
In 20 AGE, Tameck detained an intruder in the mining facility on Pha'ka. A tall pale stranger, bald and heavily tattood with scarring on one side of her head. The stranger introduced herself as Ulnara and explained that she was curious about how the moon got it's name. Tameck explained the story after which Ulnara declared herself satisfied and stated her intention to explore the mines. Tameck reminded her that she had been detained and attempted to block her with his guards. The guards were gracefully overpowered and Ulnara left, never to be seen again. Like his other secret, tameck neglected to mention this encounter to his son. In 22 AGE. Narsi Yantrel travelled to The Witch's Moon for the same reason while on the hunt for more of her people. She learned of the moons history from Talin who was more than happy to discuss the story and together they searched for the underground cave, proof of the story's validity. In accordance with Talins previous attempts at seaching, they found nothing. Narsi returned later the same week to search more thoroughly for the cave. This time she found it; Instead of a plant, there was an enchanted rock left by Ulnara which when touched recounted some of her memories. The memories included Ulnara's meeting with Tameck and Narsi returned to the facility to get any information she could from him. She persuaded Talin to her side again and showed him the proof of the story. With Narsi and his son rallying against him, Tameck reluctantly divulged the details of the woman he met that day.
