===Fort Aba'kur=== | ===Fort Aba'kur=== | ||
Except for the oasis at [[ShirKahr]], no other area on the Na'nam continent has seen so much war. For over five thousand years before the Awakening, Aba'kur defended teh entrance to a small valley named Nal'shin. This valley was cool enough that small amounts of food could be grown there. The valley was also located close to two active volcanoes. Being able to produce food, metals, and even a small amount of water made Nal'shin a prime target for the competing forces of that time. Throughout the Age of Antiquity many battles were fought by the warlords for control of Nal'shin. Academy archaeologists believe that many kinds of artifacts and information from different periods in pre-Awakening history may be found here. | |||
===Kul'Cha'Vir=== | |||
This small, secret monastery appears in old manuscripts as one devoted to training those Vulcans who had the psionic ability of pyrokenesis. From this comes its name, which translates from old Vulcan as "Brothers of Fire." Scientists are not quite sure what might be found here, but most likely expect lost knowledge or training techniques. Regardless, both the Academy and the Vulcan government will politely request to see anything brought back from any expedition to the area. They will also want to control any information that might be found, considering the past activities of organizations like the '''VIM'''. | |||
===Shrine of S'vec=== | |||
One of the first adepts to be taught by [[ma:Surak|Surak]], S'vec cam to Tat'sahr to try to bring peace to the province. For a time, he was successful, and the warlords stopped fighting. | |||
