|Introduction=Mar-Thal is a fortified highland city located at the eastern terminus of the Khargaath Deep Road corridor. Originally established as a military command post, it has since expanded into a full civic center supporting regional logistics, deep corridor monitoring, and limited civilian infrastructure. The city is positioned along a high ridgeline overlooking the Fractured Wedge—a faulted geological zone marking the transition between the Khargaath slopes and the eastern fringes of [[Sanctuary Vale]].

|Geography=The city occupies a series of stepped stone shelves carved into the upper Khargaath cliffs, with direct access to both surface roads and deep corridor entrances. The outermost walls follow the natural edge of the ridge, while internal structures are built into recessed platforms with limited exposure to wind or debris. The surrounding terrain is fractured and angular, with high-risk stone breaks and fault ridges forming a natural deterrent to unregulated passage.

|Dangers and Threats=Environmental risks dominate: the Fractured Wedge presents a persistent fault hazard, including surface instability and atmospheric distortion. Wind-driven stonefall and periodic tremors affect surface travel. Unauthorized movement along the outer ridge is prohibited. Internally, structural fatigue is monitored continuously.
