|Introduction=The Stonewardens are a civic-militant order of [[Orasians]] charged with the protection, stability, and ritual governance of the earth-aligned realm of Terasil. Unlike conventional soldiers, Stonewardens are attuned to the resonance of the land itself—trained in harmonic defense, seismic manipulation, and the containment of spiritual unrest. They are not simply guardians, but stewards of Oras’s physical memory, sworn to uphold balance through patience, endurance, and force when required. | |Introduction=The Stonewardens are a civic-militant order of [[Orasians]] charged with the protection, stability, and ritual governance of the earth-aligned realm of Terasil.

|History=The Stonewarden order emerged during the late [[Era of Isolation]], initially as a ceremonial corps of tunnel guardians and ritual stone-setters. Their role expanded significantly following the [[Great Erosion]], when seismic instability and spiritual disruption necessitated the creation of a formalized earthbound defense. With the founding of the [[Council of Kar-Thal]], the Stonewardens were appointed as its arm of enforcement and structural integrity. | |History=The Stonewarden order emerged during the late [[Era of Isolation]], initially as a ceremonial corps of tunnel guardians and ritual stone-setters.

|Relations with other factions=Stonewardens serve as the primary enforcers for the [[Council of Kar-Thal]] and collaborate closely with [[Lorewardens]] during civil disputes and oaths of record. While they maintain respectful relations with the [[Minthari]], tensions occasionally flare with mining enclaves that encroach upon sacred strata or disturb sealed spiritual zones. | |Relations with other factions=Stonewardens serve as the primary enforcers for the [[Council of Kar-Thal]] and collaborate closely with [[Lorewardens]] during civil disputes and oaths of record.
