|Cultural Role=Vows sealed in Kel-Vorun are considered irrevocable. Attempts to revoke or contradict them carry spiritual and civic consequences, as the city believes the stone will reject those who break its trust. Visiting the chamber is viewed as a rite of passage for those assuming ancestral roles, guild leadership, or long-term guardianship. | |Cultural Role=Vows sealed in Kel-Vorun are considered irrevocable.
