Introduction:	The Veins is the residential and commercial heart of [[Kar-Thal]], located in the central tiers of the mountain-city. Structured as a network of interwoven tunnels, open plazas, and family niches carved from living stone, it is the most densely populated district in the city. The name derives from the branching, capillary-like layout of its chambers, which pulse with daily life and the memory-bound rhythms of Duranthi society.
Function:	The Veins serves as Kar-Thal’s primary space for habitation, trade, and communal ritual. While its civic functions are limited compared to governance or ceremonial districts, it plays a critical role in sustaining the continuity of everyday [[Duranthi]] life—housing families, artisan recorders, and markets that maintain the city's structured memory and material stability.
History:	Originally carved as a cluster of tunnel-dwellings during the city's expansion, the Veins grew organically outward from central stone wells and mineral springs.
Notable Locations:	* Nereth-Kazuun – A central communal plaza where traders and memory-keepers gather. It serves as the heart of the district and the site of oath recitations and name-stone presentations. * Ulvek-Har – A shallow, mineral-lined basin where residents perform daily rites. * The Kareth-Shoan – Ancestral dwelling rings carved around uncut mineral pillars, each bearing inscribed lineage stones. * Veshun-Taril – The primary market corridor.
