Lake Sora is a shallow, mineral-rich lake located in the central Sanctuary Vale, serving as the terminus of the Sora River. The lake forms the lowest point in the Sora Basin, where seasonal runoff and eastward flow from the Murazkar Range gather in a wide, rocky depression. While not deep or expansive, Lake Sora is one of the few consistent water sources in the Vale and plays a critical role in both wildlife movement and human settlement.

Geology

The lakebed is composed of layered stone, silt, and mineral sediment, creating a reflective surface during calm periods. The shores are uneven, marked by smooth rock shelves and intermittent inlets. Water levels fluctuate seasonally, with temporary shallows appearing during drier cycles.

Settlements

Two settlements are situated nearby: the farming town of Alun-Tar to the northwest, and the city of Sora-Tar along its northern edge.

-Two settlements are situated nearby: the stone farming town of [[Alun-Tar]] to the west, and the waystation settlement of [[Sora-Tar]] along its southern edge. Both make use of the lake for water collection, storage, and limited processing, though access is controlled to preserve its stability.

-While not formally consecrated, Lake Sora is occasionally referenced in regional rites and recorded in environmental tone sequences. Some spiritual traditions regard the lake as a place of mirrored passage, noting the way its surface distorts sound and light during convergence periods.
