F is for Forbidden Peaks

Of course there's a huge mountain range. There's always a huge mountain range.

These mountains, the eastern reach of the Onun Mountains, are tall, treacherous, and deadly. They earned their name because of the many who have attempted to cross or explore them, only a scant few have returned, with tales of horrible creatures and deadly rockslides.

So, what makes these Forbidden Peaks different from all the other Forbidden Peaks in fantasy lands? Aside from the active Byss volcano, which houses a dragon's lair, not a lot, I suppose. But that volcano is where a great battle was fought, a battle that made a king.

But these mountains house other secrets, secrets that even the wisest of sages or the most learned magicians do not know. An ancient lost city lies somewhere in these mountains, a city that was lost before the Ramai ever came to this land. Who knows what lost lore might be found there? Perhaps some adventurers could survive the treacherous mountains and find out.

No one in Meterra knows what lies beyond the Forbidden Peaks; they are an impenetrable wall, separating Meterra from the rest of the continent. Another mystery to unravel in the future.
