Ruspak Pipeline

The Ruspak Pipeline is a system of iron pipes and concrete aqueducts running from the Ruspak Mountains to the city of Raha, deep in the Dulqa in the central Kaspari Empire. This pipeline provides the city of Raha and much of the Sultanate of Jamzodeh with necessary drinking water and irrigation, allowing the Jamzodeh region to grow dates, fruits, and vegetables. The pipeline ends at the Raha Reservoir, which fills in the spring and provides water for the city throughout the dry season.
The pipeline begins at the northeastern end of the Ruspak Mountains, where winter snowfall and spring rains are common. Consisting of a series of elevated concrete aqueducts, arranged in a tree-like pattern (with branches collecting runoff from numerous valleys), the line descends from the mountains toward the lowlands near Jumjaw. At Jumjaw, water is funneled into an iron pipeline 6 feet in diameter, and flow is controlled by a complex system of valves. A small amount of water is drawn off the pipeline by the farmers of Jumjaw.
The pipeline then heads northward through barren wastes, and enters the Sultanate of Jamzodeh near the town of Alta. A system of smaller side pipes and aqueducts collects the small amount of runoff from the mountains near Alta as well. From Alta, the pipeline continues north across the Uqseba Desert toward the town of Yenoqet, where numerous outflow pipes branch off toward the farmlands of Jamzodeh. The pipeline then runs westward across the Jamzodeh toward Raha, where it empties into the Raha Reservoir.
Patrols from Raha, led by the mamluk organization called the "Dry Souls", continually monitor the pipeline, as unlicensed tapping can be a major problem. Farmers in the Jamzodeh must pay a water tax for access to water from the pipeline, but some farmers have built illegal taps to gain free access. In addition, terrorists from the Kalliwah have been known to plant explosives along the pipeline as well. Damage must be quickly repaired, as Raha could not survive without a constant flow of water from the mountains.
