'''Description:''' '''Men-Kal''' is a strategic military outpost guarding Terasil's northern frontier. Perched atop a rugged hill, the outpost offers panoramic views of the surrounding terrain, allowing sentinels to spot potential threats well in advance. Across the valley from Menk-Kal lies the town of '''Ank-Val''', a settlement known for its robust architecture and warm communal hearths.

Ank-Val is home to skilled stoneworkers and builders who contribute to the maintenance of Terasil's defenses. The town's architecture reflects the Orasians' respect for the '''Great Consciousness''', with structures designed to blend harmoniously with the natural landscape. The stone used in construction is carefully selected to resonate with the town's spiritual beliefs, symbolizing the unity and strength of its people. Ank-Val serves as a rest stop for travelers and messengers moving between the northern territories and the heartlands of Terasil.
