Châteaufaux is a small town located within Dementlieu. Although foreigners associate Dementlieuse culture with the fine art and foppery of Port-a-Lucine, Châteaufaux has developed its own identity (albeit obscure to most) for science, crafts, and inventions.
Background
Unfortunately, a rising tide of madness is growing within Châteaufaux. If the Something in the Water dread possibility is in play, this is a result of the Fiends of Châteaufaux poisoning the water before their removal from the city[1][1.3] in 741 BC[2] Unfortunately, this may have dire implications for Dr. Vilhelm Mikki and his famed clinic, for the locals are beginning to think him the cause.[1.4]

Therefore, the encounter with the Fiends of Châteaufaux took place after the first VRGtF was published. Gazetteer III p.30-31 says the event was "just over 15 years ago" from the Gazetteer's current date.
