Aipaloovik
Aipaloovik is the tallest mountain in Talica (although its location in the Frozen Domain makes this title a bit controversial). It also happens to be one of the least survivable places in the land, which by itself is quite an achievement. The only person who can count the reasons for any race to go there must have lost all their fingers to frostbite.
Geography
Aipaloovik is a mountain disturbingly made of ice and ice alone. Its steepness ensures that climbing it without proper equipment is impossible, and the easiest way to get to the top would be through the enormous staircase the giants themselves have crafted inside it (barring the obvious opposition that the giants would be, of course).
At the top of the mountain, there is rumored to be a heavy, round plate of ice stuck in place, on which the giant chieftain has his throne. The most skeptical of men are yet to go up there to find out if it is true.
Fauna & Flora
While the mountain itself hosts no life with the exception of Mokke sacrificial offerings trapped inside it, its surroundings are almost entirely taken by the mat of tents that is the Aipan Village, where giants obviously live. Their cattle, mostly Aipan cows, also roam the land nearby.
Alternative Name(s)
Giant's Peek, the official Fortressian name that no one in the presence of a Mokke dares utter.
