In 996 PO, Creed’s Hollow emerged from the Miasma’s western border in a ring of hellfire, as if torn from Avernus and thrown by Zariel herself. The earthmote cast a menacing shadow over Madanau as it flew east, raining ash and bloodthirsty fiends down on the peaceful oasis. Madanau’s citizens were rushed to shelters while clerics from the Church of Caelum were dispatched to repel the invaders.
With the fiends defeated, monks from the Spirit Temple were able to arrest the earthmote and attend to its displaced denizens. The Church’s ambassadors were met by a village of tiefling farmers who, until recently, had been living in seclusion in Avernus, free of Zariel’s rule. Creed’s Hollow now enjoys healthy relations with the Church and trades in agricultural produce native to the Nine Hells.
