Introduction
Aterpe Station is a small, fortified outpost in the Baviare Vale located along the Deep Road between Lavierin and Gareag. It functions as an early checkpoint and observation post, used to monitor tunnel stability and register travelers. Though modest in scale, it plays a vital role in maintaining safe and predictable passage.
Geography
The outpost is built into a natural widening of the Deep Road, where the stone becomes smoother and steady drafts rise from the lower tunnels. Its main chamber is oval-shaped, set with dry platforms, carved benches, and reinforced arches. A short side tunnel leads to a signal shaft that connects to Lavierin’s deeper monitoring system.
Defenses and Watch
Aterpe Station is staffed by a team of Guzirias trained in tunnel assessment and rapid response.
