|Introduction=Kar-Thal is the ancient capital and spiritual heart of [[~~Terasil~~]]. Located in the Sanctuary Vale and carved into the [[Citadel Mountains]], it is the largest and oldest city in ~~Terasil~~ and serves as the center of Duranthi civilization. Among the Duranthi, the density of one's stone-skin is most recognized here, and often associated with ancestral proximity to [[Yairan]].

|Geography=Kar-Thal is located deep within the Citadel Mountains, a rugged and sacred range that shelters the remnants of the original primordial realm. The city itself is vertically structured, with tiered districts built into the contours of the mountain.

|History=Built on the bones of an [[Yairanian]] settlement, Kar-Thal was officially founded soon after Duranthi arrived in the [[Sanctuary Vale]], Kar-Thal emerged as the first permanent settlement in the ~~Terasil~~. It has served as a continuous center of governance, tradition, and spiritual practice since the earliest days of modern ~~Terasil~~.

|Notable Locations==== The Gates of Origin ===

The [[Gates of Origin]] are the sole known entrance to the [[Domain of Yairan]], thought to be the home of Yairan himself. This sacred land had been sealed off by Namuril centuries before the city was built, after the Namuril left the Vale following the end of the Erosion Wars

=== '''Literature and Inscription''' ===

Kar-Thal figures prominently in Duranthi civic verse and ancestral inscription. It is described not as a place, but as an experience of being shaped by stone. Short form stone-verses are commonly found on resonance posts across ~~Terasil~~, many of which begin with invocations of Kar-Thal as the seated breath or “the listening vault.”

Civic records and historical chronicles, such as those preserved in the [[Ashlar Vaults]], often reference the city as the anchor of law and spiritual continuity.
