History and position
Katoel is visible on the accepted atlas map, but the current manuscript and map evidence do not yet establish whether the name belongs to the volcanic massif, a settlement within it or a wider district. The Atlas keeps the label without inventing a false status. This landscape is shown in its controlling map position, and the Atlas keeps later interpretation separate from what the map or manuscripts already establish.
Land, work and movement
A named volcanic place beside the southern desert river and the central bay. Its roads, waterways, seasonal conditions and neighbouring terrain would shape how people travel, work and defend themselves. The details shown here are a working foundation for later stories, not a claim that every custom has already been fixed in canon.
Essan and political pressure
Any Essan discovery here would immediately raise questions of custody, access and outside influence. Local authorities would need to distinguish genuine scholarship from relic hunting, while Myaks could exploit disputed borders, private ambition or incomplete records. Map-established name. Feature type and deeper history remain unresolved.
