Description
Gifted to the Arataan Anchin for their devotion, and tasked with the protection of the Great Dragon, Vertrimax. Khershir serves as home for the clan of hardy beast hunters. The Settlement is located at the base of the Avarga Khuruu or Giants finger as the mountain is called, where it is believed the Great Sky Spirit Temu slew a giant. The harsh environment there also causes the settlement to act as a training ground for the Arataan Anchin who practice to hone their skills as hunters.
Many believe that Vertrimax is Temu in the form of a giant. Many peoples from across the Khanate make their pilgrimage to Avarga Khuruu to pay respects and worship the Dragon, most of whom revere the dragon as a savior and bearer of a great age.
