I have decided that the attached file with what I initially thought was a Skath carving must be something older, because I have found an identical carving in the second Morden Intelligence Camp in the Northern Desert of Kaderak, where there is no evidence of Skath habitation. Since there is a record of Agallan activity in the area near the Windstone Tunnels (in the form of the Tomb of Agarrus not far from there) where I found the first carving that I initially assumed to be Skath in origin, and since there is record of Agallan presence not terribly far from the Desert of Kaderak (under the Town of Kalrathia), I'm now wondering if this carving is some very ancient Agallan imagery. It's abstract enough that it could be almost anything, but bears some resemblance to a humanoid (giantoid?) form, so my present theory is that it represents some Divinity. However, as my initial theory of it being Skath in origin has apparently been dashed, I'm hesitant to assert that it is actually Agallan in origin. Maybe it's even from the Veranskian Era.
