History[edit | edit source]
Around 878, the village of Cote was living peacefully, accepting residents of all religions, including Christians, Danes, and Celts. However, after a priest named Father Deoric took the place of the village's previous priest at the local church, Cote's community began to change. Within three months, Deoric was pushing for heavy religious conversion and outcasted any "pagan" people of Cote.[1] During his tenure in Cote, Deoric began destroying cairns of Cote's pagan community and spreading misinformation about the Hidden Ones. News of Deoric's work in Cote soon reached the Hidden Ones, who also determined his ties to the Order of the Ancients. The Hidden Ones Hytham and Marcella sent their new acquaintance, Niamh of Argyll, to assassinate the priest in response.[2]
Within a day of receiving her mission, Niamh arrived in Cote. Blending in by wearing the usual garments of Cote's women, Niamh entered the village's church to see her target's sermon. After Deoric's ill-passionate sermon, Niamh went to investigate further in the countryside of Cote. Arriving at a house with an offering to the Goddess, Niamh met another Celtic woman named Wisweth. Initially hesitant, Wisweth soon saw Niamh's lunar tattoo and invited her in. Wisweth confirmed the Hidden Ones' intel about Deoric's work, revealing that the priest had destroyed her late husband's cairn and replaced it with a Christian cross. Seeing Wisweth crying, an enraged Niamh promised to investigate the matter.[1]
Discarding the cross erected by Deoric, Niamh restacked the cairn and waited until nighttime to confront the priest. At night, Niamh infiltrated Deoric's home and attacked him. After Niamh killed Deoric, an altar boy found his body and the community was in an uproar. Blaming the pagans for Deoric's death, Cote's villagers went to the countryside and burnt down Wisweth's home, with Wisweth inside. After looking at the aftermath, Niamh blamed herself and went to meet the The Lady at Avalon to be relieved of her mission.[3]
