Description

Fleeth is depicted as a large city, with a massive temple dedicated to Pholtus at its heart.

History

Though the date when Fleeth was founded is uncertain, it is known to have been where Vecna lived as a mortal boy. After his mother, Mazzel, was burnt at the stake for witchcraft, Vecna vowed vengeance upon the city and he enacted that revenge centuries later.

In return for the lives of all in the city, Keoland’s regional burghers implored Vecna to take their own lives. Instead, the lich had the entire city gutted, the governors’ wives and children executed before their very eyes, their staring heads displayed upon a vast pile of death. As a final show of "mercy," Vecna allowed the burghers to live, that they might take warning to their king.

According to Erik Mona in his Living Greyhawk Gazetteer: Missing Excerpts of the Ancient History of the Oerth (which included his material cut from the LGG for space reasons), Keoland "supported frontier towns... taking advantage of a lull of activity by the Occluded Empire, even to the north."

Geography

The precise location of the city of Fleeth is unknown, but it is known to have existed "upon the eastern plains" in the "wild lands" at the "edge of civilization"

Fleeth was a Keoish settlement created during an expansion effort by the Kingdom of Keoland during an "ambitious expansion effort".  The source notes the "fate of this settlement, known as Fleeth, is best recorded by Uhas of Neheli in his Chronicle of Secret Times, a look at the scandals, crimes and cruelties of Keoland’s first era."  Fleeth's history being recorded by Uhas of Neheli is mirrored in Vecna: Hand of the Revenant (2002).
