The Ember Waycamp

A semi-permanent Ashwalker camp at the fumarole fields' western edge — smoke-poles, fire-treated shelters, and a stone ring that has never gone cold.

The Ashwalkers rotate here in shifts, watching the vent-lines and marking safe paths with carved basalt stakes. The camp reads the mountain's mood before Ashfall Town does. Arriving here without Ashwalker sanction is possible; arriving without notice is not.
