|Introduction=Tor-Kelai is a cliffside | |Introduction=Tor-Kelai is a cliffside Outposts in the Sanctuary Vale positioned above the southern edge of the Fractured Wedge. It serves as a strategic observation and early-warning station, monitoring movement and environmental change along the overland corridor north of Varn-Telai. The Outposts in the Sanctuary Vale is minimally staffed and primarily used for tracking, signaling, and status relay toward the central and northern command network. | ||
|Geography=The | |Geography=The Outposts in the Sanctuary Vale is situated atop a high rock ledge with a direct view across the fractured terrain leading toward [[Tharn-Gate]]. The cliff face is angular and narrow, with a sheer drop to the layered faults below. The buildings are constructed along the spine of the ridge, anchored with vertical support beams and built from weight-distributing stone. The location allows for wide visual coverage and clear signal transmission. | ||

The | |History=Tor-Kelai was established to close a blind spot in the northern observation network during early efforts to regulate surface traffic into the Vale. The Outposts in the Sanctuary Vale's elevation and natural wind buffering made it suitable for long-range relay functions. Initial structures were temporary, later replaced with reinforced facilities. | ||

|Threats and Dangers=Primary threats include high wind exposure, limited maneuverability, and structural risk due to shifting cliff edges. Safety rails and anchor systems are maintained, but extended use is limited due to fatigue and terrain stress. | |Threats and Dangers=Primary threats include high wind exposure, limited maneuverability, and structural risk due to shifting cliff edges.
