|Introduction=Sora Basin is a quiet, mist-draped hollow located roughly 40 miles into the overland journey from [[Va-Tar]] to [[Djes-Val]]. It serves as the first natural and cultural waypoint on the Va-Djes Road, offering shelter, water, and a place for ritual meditation. Though not a fortified settlement, it is a well-maintained space marked by carved stones and communal reverence. | |Introduction=Sora Basin is a quiet, mist-draped hollow located roughly 40 miles into the overland journey from [[Va-Tar]] to [[Djes-Val]].

|Geography=Set in a shallow basin surrounded by worn stone ridges and scattered fig-root outcrops, Sora Basin gathers low mist most mornings and evenings. The ground is soft but dry, covered in spiraling patches of Vale Grass. Nearby, Sora Spring, a slow-trickling spring forms a shallow pool bordered by light brush and smooth stone. The air remains cool and still even during the day, and the entire hollow feels acoustically dampened. | |Geography=Set in a shallow basin surrounded by worn stone ridges and scattered fig-root outcrops, Sora Basin gathers low mist most mornings and evenings.

|Threats and Dangers=Sudden shifts in weather can lead to disorientation, especially when fog thickens rapidly. There are fissures and uneven ridges just outside the basin, which are marked but still hazardous. Though no hostile encounters have been recorded, the stillness of the site can stir unease or inward instability in spiritually unprepared travelers. | |Threats and Dangers=Sudden shifts in weather can lead to disorientation, especially when fog thickens rapidly.
