This starts with a war with a group of foreign invaders known as the Rheddig. RELATED: Forspoken: How Cipal Compares to New YorkĪs the history of these Tantas approaches the point where Forspoken opens, things begin to take a darker turn. Finally, Cinta is somewhat of a tethering figure, whose role as the Tanta of Love bolsters her people and her fellow Tantas to be kind. Olas dove into the pursuit of knowledge, gathering scholars from around the world and teaching the children of Athia. Prav set the rule of law and arbitrated punishments seen to be so fair that not a single criminal argued their sentences. Sila built an army to stem away invaders like the Rheddig as the Tanta of War. The duties of each Tanta in Forspoken could be broken down into the four different pillars that each stood for.

Then, once a year, all four would convene at Cipal in order to discuss how to better improve Athia and keep working together for the betterment of the people. Each one dedicated themselves to a pursuit that would make their own individual realms excel, but also keep all of Athia progressing forward into the future. Though it isn't initially apparent through Frey and Cuff's relationship and the latter's instructions about the history of the Tantas from his perspective, the four women who rule Athia were once completely benevolent. All that the history archive will really explain further is the fact that this distant ancestor of the Tantas appears to be gone, and the four new women currently holding the title are the only ones of note in almost four thousand years.

Beyond this first woman, it is difficult to say exactly how many have earned the title of Tanta and inherited Forspoken's signature magic abilities. She made a name for herself by fending off the Rheddah (not to be confused with the Rheddig) and the powerful demon this warring nation summoned, known as Susurrus.Īfter a six-day battle with Susurrus, she only managed to seal the demon away and not kill it entirely, but the First Tanta was still given the title of Tanta for having saved her people. However, in these few excerpts from her story, it can be seen that the First Tanta was little more than a warrior woman with a talent for magic, not the godly being that those with her title are known for by the 3800s. Frey only discovers a handful of notes from the earliest eras of Athia, with only six writings from the First Tanta being available through Forspoken's Locked Labyrinths.
