* '''Warden-Scribe Talun-Esh''' – Known for sealing the Shardstorm Breach without violence through harmonic redirection.

* '''Hulran of the Ninth Step''' – Holds the longest recorded echo-oath of uninterrupted service.

|Traditions and practices=All Stonewardens undergo the '''~~Resonant~~ Rite of Foundation''', a trial of endurance, silence, and stone-bonding within a sealed echo chamber. Their tools are custom-forged to their harmonic imprint and sealed within vaults bearing their name and lineage glyph.

They observe the ''Cycle of Vigilance''—a 14-day span of total silence and subterranean rotation—designed to renew alignment with the city’s pulse. When called into action, Stonewardens rarely speak; instead, they communicate through ~~echo-~~taps~~, gesture sequences,~~ or ~~resonance pulses~~.

|Legacy and influence=The Stonewardens are widely regarded as the living will of Terasil’s deep laws. Though not expansionist or aggressive, their interventions are often seen as final—neither questioned nor undone. Their commitment to restraint, paired with overwhelming force when needed, has preserved the sanctity of [[Kar-Thal]] and its surrounding territories for centuries.

More than a military order, the Stonewardens are an enduring embodiment of [[Orasian]] philosophy: to guard not only with strength, but with silence, memory, and precision.
