Howlite Hills
Ghliteren's Rear End
When I entered the Howlite Hills for the first time, I felt a bit out of place. It's full of all sorts of real adventuring types. I walked into a supply store and told the clerk about how I was planning on making the hike up the mountain. She looked me up and down and laughed in my face. She eventually started recommending all sorts of gear and supplies saying how important they all were. Now I have a bag full of junk."
