Northern Rishan (Situation Room locus — S1E03)

Northern Rishan stands as a cold, strategic hinterland inked onto Situation Room maps: a remote swath of territory where two ammunition dumps appear as sterile icons and coordinates. Briefing voices turn landscape into blast radii, casualty estimates, and diplomatic calculus, compressing fences and bunkers into tactical leverage. The name carries the metallic taste of ordinance, the hush of exclusion zones, and the imagined smoke and blast shadows that make distant fields feel immediately consequential.
