	With the declaration of the [[Silent Peace\|Silent Peace]] in 1389, Sestra underwent a revolution of sorts. Under the iron leadership of Grand Marshal Hashart Datton and his troops, the town flourished in light of the Emperor's olive branch of peace. Datton cracked down on the fanatical tendencies of the Black Hand, forcing out those who would continuously seek open warfare with the Sundarian Empire and Port Avanthyr. After the Colibrite vampires vanished during the [[Duskfall]], Hashart's efforts came to fruition; the Black Hand as it was known in the past was completely eradicated.

	Datton's philosophy of iron order combined with a tempered approach to other religions has proven to improve the lives of Sestran peasantry. Festivals to Chauntea are encouraged, and while Bane is the patron god of the town, those who worship goodly gods are not killed on sight. However, that isn't to say that those who swear fealty to other cities and the Triumvirate are welcomed. A non-aggression pact, supported by the Regional Council, is hardly a full peace treaty. Rather, Sestra instead seeks to gather resources and strength by instituting mandatory military service.

However, that isn't to say that those who swear fealty to other cities and the Triumvirate are welcomed and proselytizing to any gods besides Bane or Myrkul within the city is not allowed. The only exceptions to the ban on preaching of other faiths publicly must be approved by the Exarch and his council.

	With Datton's passing, it remains to be seen in what direction the new Exarch will lead the city.		With Datton's passing, it remains to be seen in what direction the new Exarch will lead the city.
