|Introduction=Sora-Tar is a diverse agricultural city situated on the northern shore of [[Lake Sora]] in the heart of the Sanctuary Vale. It serves as the primary provisioning and trade hub for surrounding settlements and is the only formally recognized city within the region. Positioned near the [[Va-Djes Road]] and with river access through the [[Sora Basin]], it is a crucial waypoint for caravans, laborers, and supply routes. While under the Council of Stone’s oversight, its distance from central governance and broad population base grant it a high degree of local autonomy.

|Geography=The city occupies a curved shoreline, with infrastructure rising gradually inland in layered terraces. Dockyards and storage piers cluster near the lake, while agricultural outposts and communal lodges sit along the elevated plains. Irrigation channels drawn from lake runoff support crops across the drier northern expanse, especially toward [[Alun-Tar]].

|History=Once a barge depot and traveler’s rest, Sora-Tar expanded as regional agricultural demand rose. Its population swelled with migrants, laborers, and trade groups—especially those seeking independence from the rigid structures of mountain-based cities. Over time, it developed into a self-governing hub led by civic representatives from trade guilds and supply networks.

|Dangers and Threats=Challenges include seasonal population strain, irrigation disputes, and water access during dry cycles. While internal violence is rare, factional tensions may surface during resource shortages. Threats from local wildlife persist near outer croplands, especially during planting and harvest seasons.
