Notes: (Nilstilar, 2023-03-31)


At the Knoll of Dissent is the Tunnel of Woe (with a Kitins' Lair). Here, topographical maps (surface and subsoil), drawn by homins in JA 2610 (Year of Jena).


Notes

About this topography

  • Carried out during the year 2610 by members of the SKA, CEK, Rangers/N'ASA...
  • Measurements made with a stake-alidade with rewinding chalk line, in relative point to point.
  • Description and final maps by Zendae, keeping the conventions of the old matis card (color codes).
  • Translation into Davae and Natae languages to come.

General information

  • Massif deformed, no elegance if not that of a heap of mektoub dung.
  • 7 doors (legend)
    7 entrances, for two and a half networks of galleries.
  • 3 underground rooms.
  • Varied kitin activity, organization noted.


The 3 different networks (map 1)

  • In black: Deep Network
  • In blue: Superior Network
  • In red: Insulated Wells
Networks: Deep Network, Superior Network, Insulated Wells

Glossary

  • Superior Network: All the galleries above the bark level.
  • Deep network: All the galleries below the bark level. Separate entries of the other network.

Species noticed

Glossary

  • Balcon des Kiros (Balcony of the Kiros): overlooks the Great Gate, often occupied by kirostas in faction.
  • Belvedère des Enragés (Enraged's Belvedere) : Point of view mainly used by the kinchers, but also regularly used by the kizarak and his escort of kinreys. Note : located just above the Prince's room. *Question* : Magnetic singularity ? Question: magnetic singularity?
  • Chemin de ronde (Chemin the round): Lower perimeter of the Hammerhead, taken on one side or the other by the kizarak for its round between the belvedere and the big door.

  • Rampe des armas : Often occupied by armas unaware of the danger.
  • Rampe du charnier (Ramp of the mass grave): Passage with a high concentration of bones.
  • Rampe des chasseurs (Hunter's ramp): Passage often used by kincher raids towards the undergrowth of the carnage.
  • Rampe dorsale (Back ramp): Rear passage, often guarded by kinchers or kirostas.
  • Rampe frontale (Front ramp): Front passage, used by the kitins to go to the heights.
  • Rampe de l'observation (Observation Ramp): Easy access for the approach of homin observers
  • Rampe des kipees : Kipees go up from the West Gate to the South Promontory.
  • Rampe des torbaks : Easy access to the summit, except for the pack of torbaks that crosses the massif in East-West alleys.
  • Sous-bois des kizos (Undergrowth of the kizos): Back of the Kitin Nest in a wood of Salinas. No notable danger but reduced visibility due to the foliage.
  • Sous-bois du carnage (Carnage undergrowth): The most important hunting and harvesting area for the nest. Sometimes the spectacle of a carnivorous frenzy. Regular convoys of harvesting kipees from the North Gate and Kizoars for hunting remains. A large kizoar spotted on the edge of the woods, probably with no direct link to the nest.
  • Sous-bois guet-apens (Undergrowth ambush): Treed area near the west door, often with a kincher hidden by the trees.
  • Tête de Marteau (Hammerhead): Second peak, like a large block of wood with a weathered patina. Relatively quiet observation point except for a visit from a kincher or kinrey.

Approach tips

  • Secure observation of the North Promontory from the ruins of the Col Vallonné research centre.
  • Close observation of the Belvedere by the hunters' ramp or the Apparition Pass.
  • Ascent from the Torbarks Ramp.
  • Aerial observation from the Hammerhead
  • Infiltration of the Resource Gallery from the West Entrance.
  • Infiltration of the Great Lacet through the Soldiers' Gate rather than the Great Gate.

Glossary

  • Allée Princière (Principle Lane): Dense gallery in kitins, and used by the kizarak to go out. Kirostas, kinreys, Kibans.
  • Carrefour de la garde (Crossroads of the Guard): Reinforced presence of kirostas and kinrey. Sometimes kizoars. We are there just under the dead end of the kizoars' well. Question: invisible passage to the Well?
  • Carrefour Social : High concentration of elite kitins mixed with kibans. Hypothesis: exchanges of food between kitins by regurgitation of kiban.
  • Chambre du Prince : Inside location of the Kizarak. Strongly guarded by the kidinaks. Note: absence of kitin larvae. Hypothesis: Male kizarak, correlating with Keale family studies.
  • Chambre Gastrique (Gastric Room): Middle of the resource gallery, convergence of kitins flows going on external supply missions. Presence of a kipucka (the only specimen of this nest) in semi-lethal, wedged against the wall. Question: what is the role of this kipucka?
    • Hypothesis 1 : Food grinder.
    • Hypothesis 2 : food taster.
  • Chambre Occulte (Occult Room): Relatively empty chamber, crossed by kinreys and kibans. Place where a passage was recently discovered, and more anciently found a kipekoo.
    • Hypothesis 1: secret Portal.
    • Hypothesis 2 : Guest room for ambassador Kipekoo.
  • Galerie Aérienne (Aerial Gallery): Makes the quick junction between the North and South promontory. Occupied by the kinchers. Hypothesis : from there the kinchers can easily sense the presence of prey.
  • Galerie des chasseurs (Hunters' Gallery): Spiral descent traversed by the kinchers to reach the North and West gates. Regular comings and goings.
  • Galerie des ressources (Resource gallery): Great kitine activity (kipees, kinchers, kibans, kizoars), this area seems to be the "stomach" of the Kitin Nest. Can be crossed relatively easily.
  • Galerie des soldats (Soldiers Gallery): Gallery mainly occupied by kirostas and some kinreys. Average density.
  • Grand Lacet (Grand Lace): Large tower that forms the continuity of the Soldiers' Gallery and the Allée Princière. It corresponds quite well to the periphery of the massif on the surface.
  • Petit Lacet (Small Lace): Internal gallery traversed by kinreys and kibans, low density. Hypothesis: Allows you to bypass the large lace to send reinforcements from one side or the other and take invading assailants in reverse.
  • Porte des Chasseurs (Hunter's Gate): Internal junction between the Hunter's Gallery and the Resource Gallery.
  • Porte Princière : Junction between the princely chamber and the big lace. Very guarded by kinreys and kidinaks.
  • Puits des Charognards (Well of the Scavengers): Downhill in turns and dead end. Presence of kizoars only. Counted for a "half" network. Hypothesis : Waste evacuation pipe, purged by the kizoars.

Addendum to the color codes of the galleries according to the old matis map

  • Blue : Aerial Gallery, because the day and the wind crosses it.
  • Red : Resource gallery, because it is the one that keeps the kitty alive. It is also a strategic gallery to infiltrate the nest with care from a distance.
  • Black : Aisle and Principle Room, because the memories of terror that these homin kitins provoke is associated with this color.
  • Violet : Small lace, because it seems precious and mysterious, as is this color in the Matis culture, a color common to all the highest quality outfits of the woodland people.
  • Beige : Well of kizoars, because they are scavengers, and as if by chance a fyros color.
  • Green : Gallery of the soldiers, a report on the kirostas soldiers whose texture melts easily in nature, and also a culturally important color for the matis.
