Ironseat Ridge
The gnolls and hillsfolk of the Dividing Plains say the crooked, angular mountain that juts out of the plains and foothills was once the throne of a titan. From a distance, Ironseat Ridge does resemble a crooked chair. Whether or not the gnolls' and common hillsfolk's beliefs are right hardly matters; the legend of Ironseat Ridge permeates the folklore of the plains.
The mountains surrounding Ironseat itself have been hollowed out over the centuries, and other legends say that the ruins of an abandoned dwarven redoubt can be found by explorers savvy enough to navigate the labyrinthine tunnels—and that it's surely filled with monsters and vast riches. Legends aside, countless abandoned mineshafts do snake through the stone like the veins of a dead titan. When the winds grow strong, one can occasionally hear a terrible, growling moan from the air pressing through the empty channels. People from Kymal rarely venture close enough to the mountains to hear the noise, but sometimes on clear, silent nights, the monstrous sound echoes through Kymal's brightly lit streets.
