Phandine Peak

Phandine Peak is quite the anomaly, geographically speaking. The mountain is quite a ways inland and the closest mountain range near it are the Shoreside Mountains, yet it does not align with them.   Few living beings have ever seen the top of the peak. It is very dangerous to approach. Those who claim to have been at the top though, say that gravity has less of a grasp on the stones. These claims can be confirmed through the use of a spyglass, though it can be difficult to spot. The higher up the mountain, the more boulders seem to "float". Climbing to the top can be deadly because of this.   The mountain is so large that cartographers and navigators often use it as a way point for judging distance and direction. It inclines upward quickly with rough, dark stone and a light snowy top. A few small tees can grow around the foot of the mountain, but rarely dare to, for the stone is thick and steady.

Being so close to the Sea of Talons, the entire area of Critinal is no stranger to storms. When one rolls in, if it reaches Phandine Peak it seems to linger longer than it normally would by a number of days. Lightning seems to be attracted to the top of the mountain, though none can explain why. There are many reports of strange activity during these storms. Pink, yellow, and even green strikes of lightning appear at the top of the mountain during these heavy rainstorms. It has been likened to a show of lights similar to those seen over the Northern regions of Dwaistar.
