The Order has a vault in Vastiri (in The Oasis in in-game area), while the Highgate is next to the Vastiri Desert and The Oasis in terms of in-game areas. Jun, Veiled Master uses some in-game fictional language that is also used by members of Maraketh, such as akhara. She also introduced herself as "of Vastiri". The order also fostered people that was exiled by Maraketh, according to the flavour text of .
