Telenkar Hold is a fortified above-ground outpost situated in the central heights of the Murazkar Range. Positioned at the midpoint of the Deep Road between Kar-Thal and Dul-Val, it also marks the terminus of the high-altitude Skybroken Trail from Vaelthar. The hold serves as a customs checkpoint, supply depot, and neutral meeting point for overland travelers crossing from Vaelthar.

Geography

Built atop a stone shelf above deep chasms, Telenkar Hold is surrounded by sheer cliffs, unstable switchbacks, and mist-covered ridges. The Skybroken Trail reaches the hold via a sequence of weather-worn bridges and narrow paths.

History

Telenkar Hold originated as a Duranthi deeproad way station and was later repurposed to a customs and border checkpoint following the opening of the Skybroken Trail. .

Defenses and Watch

As a primary checkpoint, Telenkar is well-defended and structurally compact. A permanent Stonewarden garrison is posted here.
