|Introduction=Minthek is the northernmost settlement of the Minthari, a fortified underground outpost honeycombed into the towering slopes of [[Mount Atal]], the highest peak of the [[Anvil Range]]. Positioned at a strategic vantage point, it grants the Minthari an unparalleled view of the surrounding regions, allowing them to monitor movements across the northern highlands, the [[Tearfall Range]], and beyond. Minthek is a defensive stronghold, designed to withstand external threats while remaining hidden within the mountain’s stone.
