Tella'men Bridge
From Myths of Atalan Wiki
Spanning the great ravine of the Glin'Alu River the mighty edifice that is the Tella'men Bridge stands as both a testament to Syl'vaen ingenuity and a memorial of all that have been claimed since Haer'Tenom. The bridge stands upon grand arch foundations rooted to the bedrock rapids of the Glin'Alu River. Once a marvel and stopping point for water traffic during the summer months of lower flow on the Glin'Alu, for over a century The Tella'men became a choke point upon which the Restless flung themselves tirelessly day after day. The bridge became a funnel that allows a much smaller force of Vakh'na to hold against such overwhelming odds.
With the events that lead to the destruction or removal of all Restless within the Tir'Ehtele, the purpose of the bridge has changed somewhat in time. The Tella'men Bridge continues to serve as the forward command position against the Restless, though it is no longer along the front line of their defence of the woods from such. Vakh'na recruits gather behind the impressive fortifications to learn about their duty and one day hope to stand with their elders upon the bridge or further east within the swamp. A few decades past, after a large horde erupted from the Karrgath Hills, the Haerkglar improved the fortifications to the Tella'men Bridge making it much more capable of holding against the Restless or any other threat.
