    "character": "The posts were built of stone below and timber above, the timber specifically so that a post could be fired by its own wardens as a signal of last resort. In 1269 this worked against them: Revakgol fired the posts themselves, and the pattern of burning that reached the Paathur was indistinguishable from a general alarm with no information in it.",
    "legacy": "The thirty post-names survive in Zegtuzsos clutch songs as a fixed-order list. The order is the order in which they burned. Nothing was rebuilt; the march is ruin and the imperial road runs past it.",
    "overview": "Not a settlement and not a fortress line. Vekh\u0027Zural was a warden-march: a chain of small posts, each holding four to nine wardens, sited for visibility rather than defence and connected by fire-signal.\n\nIts purpose was to convert the Medestul from a border into a warning."
