The Great Northern Mountain

Through the Wind and Ice
2 Continents each have a portion of land extend from their northern section to meet at a singular mountain. There are no other places at which these 2 bodies of land touch.

At the top of the mountain there is a shrine dedicated to the god Uktier. Occasionally, he will come down and reside in the shrine. During that time, the fighting will stop and the 2 factions will celebrate and make offerings to their god. Within the shrine the Sonekei Family has set up what they call The Fire of the Family. It is a fire that has been burning since the shrine was completed, and is kept alive as a tradition. To them, it symbolizes the flames of war and the bonds they share with their relatives.

At sea level at the northern and southern ends of the mountain, there is a beach area at the base of the mountain. Wealthy individuals from all around the world have flocked to this small section of land, wanting to own a piece of the property. Those that have done this are fascinated by the idea of going straight from the beach and directly into the snow. Each beach house has a cable car type system that is capable of carrying 4-6 people to the snowy elevations of the mountain. However, most people plan their trips north when the God Uktier is present or some other cease fire is in effect.

Directly underneath the summit, there is a vast Braanlanng mine, which is a mineral similar to coal, that when lit on fire, burns very slowly but the fire is incredibly hot. This mineral has been sold to the rest of the world for ages at an exorbitant price because nowhere else in the world can produce it.
