Introduction

Eroșeni Station is a small, fortified outpost in the Sanctuary Vale located along the Deep Road between Lavierin and Zarik-Val. It functions as an early checkpoint and observation post, used to monitor tunnel stability and register travelers. Though modest in scale, it plays a vital role in maintaining safe and predictable passage.

Geography

The outpost is built into a natural widening of the Deep Road, where the stone becomes smoother and steady drafts rise from the lower tunnels. Its main chamber is oval-shaped, set with dry platforms, carved benches, and reinforced arches. A short side tunnel leads to a signal shaft that connects to Lavierin’s deeper monitoring system.

Defenses and Watch

Eroșeni Station is staffed by a team of Stonewardens trained in tunnel assessment and rapid response.

-|History=Kel-Tarin was established during the initial expansion of the [[Deep Roads]]. It began as a mark-stone and resting slab, later expanded into a formal post after a series of cave-ins and traveler losses. Its name derives from an old [[Orathic]] phrase meaning “held still in stone.”
+|Defenses and Watch=Eroșeni Station is staffed by a team of Stonewardens trained in tunnel assessment and rapid response.
-|Functions and Features=* Entry Mark Chamber – Visitors register their passage and direction on carved stone tablets.
+|Culture and Protocol=Travelers stopping at Eroșeni Station are expected to observe silence and press their mark-hand into the entry stone before resting. The station's keepers maintain a shelf of unclaimed travel stones left behind by those who never returned. These stones are periodically dusted and preserved as a memorial.
-* Watch Gallery – A narrow shelf used for visual inspection of the tunnel beyond.
-* Signal Shaft – A vertical shaft for emergency signals, including bell strikes or smoke markers to Kar-Thal.
-* Rest Bay – A sheltered rest area with water basins and secure alcoves for travelers' belongings.

-|Defenses and Watch=Kel-Tarin is staffed by a team of Stonewardens trained in tunnel assessment and rapid response. While lacking major fortifications, its placement allows for quick barricades and signal alerts if necessary. The outpost’s walls are reinforced against shock and structural failure.
-|Threats and Dangers=Primary hazards include stone shifting, gas seepage, and structural instability from nearby abandoned tunnels. Rarely, stonefolds occur near the gallery. Unauthorized travelers are logged and reported. No hostile incidents have been recorded since the post’s founding, but a defensive presence is maintained.
