|Introduction=Alun-Tar is a working Orasian settlement located midway along the Va-Djes Road, deep within the open savanna of Sanctuary Vale. It is known for its structured terraces, mineral-rich fields, and quiet, durable way of life. Travelers heading toward [[Djes-Val]] often stop here for resupply, water, and orientation, while local stone-tenders maintain the surrounding land with deep ancestral practices. | |Introduction=Alun-Tar is a working [[Orasian]] settlement located midway along the Va-Djes Road, deep within the open savanna of Sanctuary Vale.

|Geography=Set on a series of low, stepped ridges, Alun-Tar is surrounded by layered stone terraces cultivated with surface-rooted grasses, fissure crops, and stabilized mineral beds. A steady breeze cuts across the plain, and wind-carved stone walls help shield the inner structures from erosion and dust. Shallow aquifers feed a system of sloped irrigation channels known as the “vein runs,” which guide water across the tilled layers. | |Geography=Set on a series of low, stepped ridges, Alun-Tar is surrounded by layered stone terraces cultivated with surface-rooted grasses, fissure crops, and stabilized mineral beds.

|History=Founded during early land stabilization campaigns following the [[Great Erosion]], Alun-Tar grew from a line of traveling stone-tenders who built simple maintenance ledges to slow runoff and erosion. These methods evolved into a full-scale pattern of stone farming—shaping, binding, and renewing the land over decades. Today, Alun-Tar is one of the only permanent farming sites within the Sanctuary Vale proper. | |History=Founded during early land stabilization campaigns following the [[Great Erosion]], Alun-Tar grew from a line of traveling stone-tenders who built simple maintenance ledges to slow runoff and erosion.
