The Northern Rampart

The alpine spine north of the Reach, cut by the ruined Windcut Pass and undercut by the Stonewright Moot's deep galleries — the main continent's authored difficulty ceiling.

Sheer and cold above the treeline, the Rampart is where the Stonewright Moot cuts its deep galleries into the mountain's own bones, and where the old Windcut Pass — the Korl's ancient road down into the lowlands, a garrison ruin now — still remembers a war nobody living fought. The tier climbs to match: this is Tier 5 by authored design, not by distance.
