Lilac Haze

Lilac Haze is an isolated peak rising from the norhtern edge of Dwalinsbluff, approximately 60 kilometers northeast of Dwalinstad. Unlike the surrounding granite and limestone ridges, Lilac Haze is composed primarily of dark basalt and deep-vein obsidian, indicative of ancient volcanic activity. It reaches an elevation of roughly 9,300 feet.   A notable feature of Lilac Haze is the persistent violet-colored mist that encircles its upper slopes and summit. The phenomenon is chemically stable and non-toxic in low concentrations, though it exhibits slight hallucinogenic and irritant properties with prolonged exposure. According to geological records and historical expedition notes, the mist originates from mineral seepage within the mountain’s core. Core samples indicate high concentrations of fossilized organic matter and trace pruple worm poison residue, which researchers have linked to the presence of a massive, fully petrified purple worm embedded in the rock strata near the mountain's center.   There are no active mining operations on Lilac Haze due to unpredictable seismic tremors and the corrosive effects the mist has on uncoated metal equipment. Local wildlife avoids the upper elevations, and there are no permanent settlements nearby.   The mountain remains under survey by the Galloway University and is occasionally visited by geological and arcano-biological researchers.
