====== Le Rocher de Ralliement ======

The **Gathering Stone** is an enormous piece of shale, located in the lowlands of the Northern Plains of Darguun. As fits its name, it acts as a gathering point for many Gobelinoid tribes to assemble.

====== Histoire ======
Immediately after the [[Empire Dhakaani]] collapsed, Le Rocher de Ralliement was used for the assembly of smaller Gobelinoid tribes, which also made it ideal for more powerful tribes enslaving lesser tribes here. Over time, tribes assembled into hordes, and Le Rocher de Ralliement still served its purpose by gathering groups of these Gobelinoids, until eventually the hordes stabilized and [[Ghaal'dar]] rose to power.

Now, it acts much like an enormous marketplace, where any number of things are bought and sold. At any time, it is surrounded by tents, hovels, and fires - basically, Le Rocher de Ralliement is permanent campsite. Recently, [[Maison Garda]] has established a fortress near the stone, where Gobelinoid mercenaries are recruited and trained by the House.

======Kurmaac======
The stone is tended to by druids of the Kurmaac tribe, who maintain both Le Rocher de Ralliement itself and the ancient traditions surrounding it. Additionally, they oversee the ancient law of the "blind forum," where disputes are settled by Kurmaac sentinels who listen to the claims, and organize contests according to what they hear. Among other things, this serves to justify speech against [[Lhesh Haruuc]], which can frequently be heard around Le Rocher de Ralliement, as the Kurmaac encourage free speech in its vicinity (but this freedom is nullified as soon as they leave). It is for this same reason that, besides its many transient people, Le Rocher de Ralliement holds a small permanent colony of those opposed to Lhesh Haruuc.
