Today less than 100 people still loyal to the Daratan name control a small town named [[Teron]], that has definitely seen better days. As House Daratan draws its last gasp, some within are preparing for one last fight, to shift the balance of power and restore the noble House at any cost. |

With less than a full legion, Catulus faced twenty thousand men and stood his ground. He could have retreated and waited for reinforcements, but cowards never accomplish anything. Catulus saw an opportunity and he took it. After the battle, the Emperor himself named Catulus the Dux<ref>https://military.wikia.org/wiki/Dux</ref> per Dar Attan, calling him dux bellorum<ref>https://military.wikia.org/wiki/Dux#Post-Roman_uses</ref> - the dux of battles - the highest honour for a warrior. Tiberius Catulus had set standards against which every Lord of this House has been measured. Within a century, a humble House has become the most powerful and influential House. It was at the forefront of every war, every battle. Daratan legions had always stood their ground, no matter the odds, but the war with [[Qantari]] demons was unlike any other and had taken a large toll. It had sapped House strength and power. The first become the last. |

The [[Noble House]]s kept them in check for a long time, but they have been too preoccupied with fighting each other lately, which is why we have only three weakened Houses now - if you pretend that [[House Daratan]] is still a House - instead of the seven that survived the war. So, whatever it is the Guards are up to, I want to know. Surprises are bad for our business." |
