Whitehail Peaks
The Whitehail Peaks stand as a breathtaking yet treacherous mountain range, shrouded in perpetual snow and lightning storms, located in the far North of Aesor. This frozen expanse, stretches across the territory of the Magistrate of Aztheon and serves as the ancestral home of the Arkey race.
Towering mountain ranges stand against the sky, seemingly reaching out to brush the Shattered Light. The mountains of the Whitehail Peaks, are the highest of all mountains on Aesor. The region's climatic conditions are harsh and unrelenting, characterized by bone-chilling cold that can freeze unwary travelers to their core. Blizzards whip across the peaks, veiling the landscape in an impenetrable cloak of whirling snow and ice crystals. These unending storms, driven by colossal gusts, obscure visibility and test the survival skills of those who dare to venture within these regions.
Peaks of Danger
The Whitehail Peaks present an array of perilous challenges to those seeking passage through its domain. The sheer cold alone is formidable enough to numb limbs and dull the senses within moments, rendering even the hardiest of souls vulnerable to its icy climate. The winds, known to reach hurricane-like velocities, have been known to whisk away travelers, hurling them into the abyss below. Avalanches, triggered by the mighty storms, mountains hit by lightning strikes, gusts or seismic tremors, cascade down the mountainsides with thunderous force, sweeping away everything in their path. The deafening crack of snow and ice, serves as a haunting reminder of the ever-present danger that lurks within these frozen peaks.Recommended Precautions
The Magistrate of Aztheon, strongly advise against solitary travel, especially within the northern mountainous regions of the Whitehail Peaks. It is recommended to journey with at least two companions, for the treacherous nature of this icy and stormy domain demands vigilance and mutual support. For the Arkey race, the Whitehail Peaks have been their home since the Awakening, thus the Arkey have adapted to thrive in these harsh conditions. Their resilience to extreme cold and their innate understanding of the terrain grant them a unique advantage, enabling them to navigate the treacherous landscape with relative ease compared to outsiders, especially with their skillful use of Marcry.General Information
