Kel-Tarash

Type	Deep Road Inspection Post and Maintenance Station
Location	Khargaath Range, 60 miles northeast from Djes-Val, on the Dul-Mar Deeproad
Realm	Terasil
Inhabitants	Duranthi
Controlled by	Council of Stone
Significance	Intermediate checkpoint for structural integrity, air quality, and passage clearance

Kel-Tarash is a functional outpost positioned roughly 60 miles into the Deep Road between Djes-Val and Mar-Thal. Designed for inspection and structural monitoring, the station serves as a mid-route checkpoint for maintenance crews and trade caravans.

Geography

The outpost is carved into a dry, level section of the Deep Road.. A long corridor runs through the central chamber, with reinforced support braces and staggered alcoves for equipment. A secondary tunnel connects to an older, sealed maintenance shaft.

History

Established during the early days of the Khargaath corridor, Kel-Tarash replaced a former rest ledge at the site. Its current form includes two main vaults, an exhaust testing corridor, and a sealed access hatch to the southern wall.

Defenses and Watch

Basic watch is maintained by a two-person Stonewarden shift at all times. Gate levers are manual and can seal the chamber in under a minute.

-|Introduction=Kel-Tarash is a functional outpost positioned roughly 60 miles into the Deep Road between [[Djes-Val]] and [[Mar-Thal]]. Designed for inspection, pressure management, and structural monitoring, the station serves as a mid-route checkpoint for maintenance crews and authorized convoys. It is not a settlement, and long stays are not permitted without clearance.

-|Geography=The outpost is carved into a dry, level section of the Deep Road surrounded by layered basalt and stabilized with pressure-lock arches. A long corridor runs through the central chamber, with reinforced support braces and staggered alcoves for equipment. A secondary tunnel connects to an older, sealed maintenance shaft that is still monitored for signs of shift or intrusion.
+|History=Established during the early days of the Khargaath corridor, Kel-Tarash replaced a former rest ledge at the site. Its current form includes two main vaults, an exhaust testing corridor, and a sealed access hatch to the southern wall.
-|History=Established during early stabilization of the Khargaath corridor, Kel-Tarash replaced a former rest ledge that collapsed during pressure misalignment. Its current form includes two main vaults, an exhaust testing corridor, and a sealed access hatch to the southern wall. The outpost was designed to meet minimal travel disruption while providing critical pressure readings and road integrity data.
+|Defenses and Watch=Basic watch is maintained by a two-person [[Stonewarden]] shift at all times. Gate levers are manual and can seal the chamber in under a minute.
-|Functions and Features=* Central Lane – Used for movement of convoys, brief rest, and tool transfer.
-* Pressure Monitors – Embedded mechanisms that measure minor shifts in surrounding strata.
-* Signal Chamber – Allows for encoded light signals to be sent to the next post if necessary.
-* Tool Alcoves – Housing basic alignment and stress-testing instruments.
 |Culture and Society=Kel-Tarash operates on a fixed schedule. Crews rotate every 20 days. Social activity is minimal and task-oriented.
-|Defenses and Watch=Basic watch is maintained by a two-person shift at all times. Gate levers are manual and can seal the chamber in under a minute. No permanent garrison is stationed here, but Stonewardens pass through regularly for inspection.
-|Threats and Dangers=Stone pressure shifts and surface-fault tremors are the primary risks. Gas detection systems are checked each cycle, and recent fluctuations near the sealed shaft have prompted increased attention. No reported attacks or incidents in the last 30 days.
