Description
Thara Celehar noted that Aveio was far away from Amalo, and isolated. The population has been shrinking for generations.

The town had a hierophant, who appeared to be a high-ranking prelate, perhaps the highest-ranking of the local prelates. It's possible that the hierophant is the othas'ala.

Ghouls were “a frequent problem in Aveio, where the graveyards far exceeded the reach of any single prelate." During Thara Celehar's tenure there, an entire family was found mostly eaten by ghouls. Thara noted that the local othas'ala of Aveio had hated him, and only tolerated Thara because Thara was capable of quieting ghouls by himself. Thara regularly disagreed with the othas'ala on different matters, but could not say anything for fear of being censured.

Thara noted that the hierophant knew that Thara and Evru Dalar were lovers, and so would not help Evru when Evru's wife, Oseian Dalaran, abused him. When Evru murdered Oseian, Thara investigated the murder and revealed Evru's complicity. Thara's resigned his prelacy afterward.

Thara implied that Aveio did not treat female prelates well, or would not tolerate them.
