|Introduction=Zhun-Kethal is a mid-sized Deep Road outpost built into a naturally exposed slope of the Khargaath Range. It serves as a critical junction, resupply station, and emergency shelter along the route between [[Djes-Val]] and [[Dul-Val]].

|Geography=The outpost occupies a shallow rise where a collapsed tunnel roof created an open stone chamber partially connected to the surface. The lower levels retain Deep Road structure—arched corridors, inspection lanes, and storage vaults—while the upper section opens to the outside via a wide, sloped ravine. Stone walls and carved ledges stabilize the surface area, creating a tiered courtyard exposed to wind and filtered light.

|History=Originally the site of a tunnel failure, Zhun-Kethal was stabilized and expanded into a permanent station to manage traffic on the Dul-Mar Deeproad. Its hybrid structure allowed for improved airflow, signaling, and visibility. Over time, it became a favored stop for long-haul caravans and traveling engineers.

|Threats and Dangers=Key risks include structural stress from changing stone pressure, windborne debris at the surface level, and occasional wild temperature drops. Surface routes must be monitored for signs of instability, and night passage through exposed areas is discouraged without guide clearance.
