|Introduction=Telenkar Hold is a fortified above-ground outpost situated in the central heights of the [[Murazkar Range]]. Positioned at the midpoint of the treacherous overland route between [[Kar-Thal]] and [[Dul-Val]], it also marks the terminus of the high-altitude path from [[Vaelthar]], known as the **Skybroken Trail**. The hold functions as a customs checkpoint, supply depot, and neutral meeting ground for surface travelers crossing the Murazkar spine.

The hold functions as a customs checkpoint, supply depot, and neutral meeting ground for surface travelers crossing the Murazkar spine.

|Geography=Built atop a stone shelf overlooking deep chasms, Telenkar Hold is surrounded by sheer cliffs, unstable switchbacks, and mist-wreathed escarpments. The **Skybroken Trail** from Vaelthar approaches from the north via a narrow series of weather-scoured ridges and stone bridges, considered passable only by trained caravanners or with escort. The hold itself is ringed by a double curtain wall of obsidian-flecked stone and supported by cistern-fed terraces and elevated storage vaults.

|History=Telenkar Hold was originally a Kar-Thali border bastion repurposed and expanded under treaty with Vaelthar, following the stabilization of the Skybroken Trail. Its customs function emerged from the need to control trade, refugees, and illicit resonance items traveling overland across the range. The outpost was placed under joint stewardship through the [[Deepwatch Compact]], which maintains neutrality while enforcing shared regulations.

|Culture and Ritual=Telenkar is highly pragmatic and law-bound, with a culture of enforced neutrality and rotational governance. Speech here is deliberate and records are meticulously kept. Most residents are not permanent, and the hold is considered a place of passage and protocol, not belonging. Travelers are expected to observe local codes, including silence during tonal checks and full declaration of carried harmonics or deepbound objects.
