Point Vigilance was a part of the Six Claws, which were land formations extending from the western edge of the continent of Alanciar on the planet Kesh. Being one of the Six Claws, Point Vigilance stretched westward into the Western Sea, heading in the direction of the continent called Keshtah. The Alanciari, who are Keshiri people living on Alanciar, operated a signal tower at Point Vigilance. From this tower, the Signal Corps kept watch, looking for indications of an invasion by the Lost Tribe of Sith residing on the western continent. Located inland from the Six Claws was the fortress known as Garrow's Neck, where a group of soldiers were stationed to react if an attack were to occur.
