Dragon's Crown

The Dragon's Crown mountains rise out of the Hinterlands, shrouded in black cinders spewed out of an ages old volcano. Most of the races that live near the monolithic mountain have stories that serve as warnings to potential explorers. The local people believe that a great and timeless power exists inside the volcano, and that it is indeed something to be feared. Standing as a lonely sentinel, the steep slopes are broken up only by the jagged flow of lava left from an ancient river of magma.

At the end of the broken ground of this river, lies a beautiful pine forest, filled with gentle creatures. Deep within the forest lies an alabaster fortress. The fortress lies quiet, although the hints of a great and recent battle lie upon the air. Strangely, those who utilize the Way find it very difficult to focus while close to this structure, and even those who lack psionic talent experience sharp headaches if they linger in the area too long.
