Faraed

The Faraed were an assimilated people in Lether.Midnight Tides, Glossary Like the Nerek and the Tarthenal, they had been unwittingly betrayed by Hull Beddict and subjugated by the Kingdom of Lether. Even though the Letherii had reduced them to what Seren Pedac described as "a half-dozen Indebted beggars" they worshipped Hull.Midnight Tides, Chapter 2, US SFBC p.67
The people were described as having honey-coloured skin with dark hair and slightly up-turned eyes.Midnight Tides, Chapter 2, US SFBC p.74
The Faraed maintained an oral tradition listing their generations back to ancient times. Their creation myths centred on a pantheon of aspected and divisive Elder Gods with unwelcome personalities. Among them was Mael, Elder Lord of the Seas.Midnight Tides, Chapter 6, US SFBC p.192
They considered rotting fish a delicacy.Midnight Tides, Chapter 10, US SFBC p.297
Faraed made excellent scouts in the Letherii Army as they were virtually impossible to sneak up on in the wild.Midnight Tides, Chapter 15, US SFBC p.470
The Faraed saw the Shake as child-snatchers in the night, leaving them husks of bread on tree stumps as if they were malignant crows.Reaper's Gale, Chapter 12, US HC p.339
==Notable Faraed==

==In Midnight Tides==
Many Faraed refugees found their way to Letheras where they lived on the streets with other indigent tribes. Hull's brother, Tehol Beddict, resettled many on a string of islands he purchased for his brother's sake.Midnight Tides, Chapter 2, US SFBC p.91
==In Reaper's Gale==
Ublala Pung identified the Draconean Sea as the location of the islands Tehol Beddict had purchased to resettle the Tarthenal refugees from the Letherii Empire, so the Faraed were likely there as well.Reaper's Gale, Chapter 12, US HC p.302
