Alborandi palisade
The Alborandi palisade is a wooden defensive wall erected around the Alborandi encampment at the Waygrove, forming a closed perimeter that demarcates their presence at that site - Days of Shattered Faith, ch 15. Its existence in the narrative is tied to a single moment of violence: during fighting in the vicinity of the Alkhand's travelling court, the structure is breached and staved in by an ogrodon, a large horned beast, in the course of the combat - Days of Shattered Faith, ch 15.
The palisade matters to the story chiefly as a fixed marker of the Alborandi's physical position within the contested landscape around the Alkhand's court, and as a point of destruction within that combat. Its arc across the single book in which it appears is brief: established as an enclosure, then damaged during the fighting that erupts nearby, leaving the Alborandi perimeter compromised.
The Object
Description
The Alborandi palisade is a wooden wall constructed in palisade form - driven stakes or timbers forming a continuous barrier - that encloses the Alborandi presence at the Waygrove - Days of Shattered Faith, ch 15.

What It Does

Its structural limits are demonstrated when an ogrodon - a large horned beast - staves it in during the fighting that occurs in proximity to the Alkhand's travelling court, showing that the wall is vulnerable to the impact of a sufficiently large and powerful creature - Days of Shattered Faith, ch 15.
Provenance
The palisade is associated with the Alborandi presence at the Waygrove, enclosing their encampment or settlement there - Days of Shattered Faith, ch 15. Its specific builders and the date of its construction are not identified.
