|Introduction=The Dural Hills form a rugged upland subregion along the ~~southern~~ edge of the Sanctuary Vale. Situated directly ~~north~~ of the Citadel Mountains and ~~southeast~~ of Kar-Thal, the hills mark the transitional zone between the high mountain slopes and the lower ~~basin plains~~. The terrain consists of rolling stone terraces, shallow-cut gullies, and weathered outcrops that support sparse vegetation and limited habitation.

|Introduction=The Dural Hills form a rugged upland subregion along the south-eastern edge of the Sanctuary Vale. Situated directly west of the Citadel Mountains and northwest of Kar-Thal, the hills mark the transitional zone between the high mountain slopes and the lower basins. The terrain consists of rolling stone terraces, shallow-cut gullies, and weathered outcrops that support sparse vegetation and limited habitation.

|Historical Significance=The hills have historically served as a staging and training area for initiates from Kar-Thal and nearby settlements. Though not the site of major conflicts or civic centers, their proximity to the capital has made them strategically important for logistical movement ~~and supply during regional stabilization efforts. Old trade paths and signal lines pass through the hills en route to eastern crossings~~.

|Cultural Significance=While not heavily populated, the Dural Hills maintain cultural relevance as a borderland under the influence of Kar-Thal. Several small settlements practice ~~stone~~ farming and relay support for caravans bound for the deeper Vale~~. Echo rites and earth-oaths are sometimes performed on exposed shelves or in natural amphitheaters within the hills, particularly by initiates beginning formal observation or trial periods~~.

|Settlements and Outposts=*[[Reth-Vareth]]: The main settlement of the area.

*Mal-Kelai: An outpost on the border of [[Telenkar Fold]] and a monitoring station for wildlife and travelers.

~~|Notable features=* Stepped Shelves – Naturally occurring stone terraces used for both agriculture and training drills.~~

* Marker Stones – Standing stones used for path alignment, signal relay, or territorial memory.

* Ridge Points – Elevated outlooks with line-of-sight access to Kar-Thal and the northern plains.
