|Introduction=''Sanctum in Pressure'' is a monumental triptych carved directly into a living basalt wall in the South Archive Hall of Dul-Val. Rendered in tonal relief, the piece is regarded as one of the most significant visual expressions of collective memory in [[Sanctuary Vale]]. The work is both artistic and acoustic—its surfaces are shaped to resonate faintly in response to ambient sounds, in accordance with Orasian resonance practice. | |Introduction=''Sanctum in Pressure'' is a monumental triptych carved directly into a living basalt wall in the South Archive Hall of Dul-Val.

|Description=The triptych is composed of three continuous panels, each reflecting a pivotal moment in the memory of the vale. No figures are present; the work relies entirely on shape, pressure lines, and the interplay of etched texture and stone silence. | |Description=The triptych is composed of three continuous panels, each reflecting a pivotal moment in the memory of the vale.

* The first panel represents the *arrival of the [[Orasians]]* into the valley. It features spiraling descent forms, overlapping path impressions, and rhythmically layered stone bands suggesting listening, movement, and anchoring. | * The first panel represents the *arrival of the [[Orasians]]* into the valley.

* The second panel depicts the *sealing of the Tarsuun Pass*. It presents a central fracture locked by interlocking stone shapes and bounded by carved resonance loops, symbolizing containment and ritual boundary. | * The second panel depicts the *sealing of the [[Tarsuun Pass]]*.

* The third panel conveys the *echoing silence after the [[Great Erosion]]*. Here, waveforms gradually diminish into flat, untouched basalt, evoking a sense of stillness, grief, and quiet endurance. | * The third panel conveys the *echoing silence after the [[Great Erosion]]*.
