Tanit

The Tanit were a nomadic Eremite tribe that lived in Sumeru's desert. Their most recent settlement, the Tanit Camps, is located in the southern border of the Desert of Hadramaveth.
==Description==
The Tanit tribe is a matrilineal clan that believes in the Goddess of Flowers and is led by a Matriarch and Nine Elders. The tribe is the oldest among the tribes that wander the Desert of Hadramaveth, and as a large-scale tribe they have many branches. Unlike the other tribes, the Tanit value the power of words and knowledge, but do not trust the Akasha. One of their main sources of income comes from trading; their crocodile products, spices, and essential oils are extremely popular in Sumeru's markets, and they also hunt Wenut for spices as well.
The Tanit also take part in the plunder known as "hunting." Some of the tribes in the Desert of Hadramaveth will adopt or plunder young children and raise them into Falcons, such as Tadhla, who are devoted to the elders. Only a handful of them will become favored by the Tribe Elders.
The Tanit have no unified law nor written rules, but rather only follow what has been written in their blood and habits. To them, the enemies they hate most are not outsiders, but traitors from within.
==History==
The Tanit have lived in Sumeru's desert for an unknown amount of time. In the past, "ascetics" established the Tanit's practice of raising "Falcons", a perversion of the ceremonies conducted by the priests of King Deshret who passed down his art of archery. At some point near the current events of the game, Babel conspired with the Fatui to eliminate the other tribe elders to consolidate power for herself.
After the Traveler and Jeht discovered The Orchard of Pairidaeza, Babel decided to eliminate the Traveler to gain full control of the Eternal Oasis and rebuild the glory days of the desert empire prior to its destruction, ordering the Tanit to eliminate them. However, the Traveler deduced the truth and informed Jeht of the betrayal, who was significantly enraged upon learning the truth. With the Traveler, she destroyed the Tanit, leaving only a few survivors — those that Babel had sent to warn the other tribes of Jeht's "treachery" and those that were in exile and not silenced.
Following the tribe's destruction, the Vahumana Dastur Tanjiyy attempted to make contact with the Tanit to provide educational assistance per the deal that Setaria had made. However, when he arrived, he found the Tanit camps empty and inferred that the tribe was annihilated, although he was unaware of the details.
