			Azazel is the desert entity of Leviticus 16, to whom the scapegoat is sent. On the Day of Atonement the sins of the people are laid on the animal's head and it is driven out to Azazel, into the wilderness, carrying what the community cannot hold.

			The rabbinical tradition also names Azazel as a place: a cliff or mountain, at the foot of which everything sent there is destroyed and does not return.

			The installation was named deliberately.

'''Site AZAZEL''' is the primary installation of [[Department of Esoteric and Thaumaturgical Research|DETR]], sunk into the Antarctic ice sheet approximately 20 kilometres south of [[Vostok Station]], directly above [[Ark Chasm]] and constructed around [[The Apple]]. The lowest level stands at a depth of 3,000 metres, inside the ice and just above bedrock.

The name was selected because it means nothing. This was a requirement of the founding order.

Vertical movement by Cargo Lift ALPHA (L1), Cargo Lift CHARLIE (L2–L3), and the Central Elevator. The Level-4 vault stands on its own shaft, independent of every other lift run in the installation.

[[The Apple]] is registered '''HR-3 / CS-A / CAL-3'''. It is capable of ending the world, it is entirely compliant, and it may not be looked at. The combination is unique in the register.

== Note on siting ==

The ice at [[Vostok Station]] is approximately 3,700 metres thick. Level-4 therefore sits inside the sheet rather than in rock, roughly seven hundred metres above bedrock, and the entire installation is suspended in ice that is itself moving.

The engineering consequence is that [[DFLE]] does not maintain a structure. It maintains a structure's position.
