|Introduction='''Nal-Kot''' is an [[Ancestral Spirit|ancestral spirit]] known as the Guardian of Dul-Val. Revered primarily by the [[Duranthi]] of that city, Nal-Kot is believed to have emerged as a conscious spiritual presence through generations of superstition regarding the protection of the nearby mountains over the city and mountain pass.
|Domain and Manifestation=Nal-Kot is the protector of the city of Dul-Val, home to Duranthi scholarship and the [[Ascendant Spirit]] [[Varunel]]. Nal-Kot is known to emerge only when danger threatens the city.
|Cultural Significance=Nal-Kot's protection is celebreated annually with a major feast in Dul-Val and a competition for local [[Stonewarden]] warriors.
|Ritual Practices and [[Osia]]=Orasians and stone-bound Osari make pilgrimages to the foot of [[Orak-Thun]] in silence. Rituals involve sitting for cycles of breath, listening for “the inner echo”—a meditative [[attunement]] with the mountain’s presence. Osia practitioners believe Orak-Thun grants rare insight into naming osia, the deep art of fixing identity into stone. Names spoken aloud near the base of the mountain are believed to take root in the land itself, never forgotten.
