				Eastern Mountains

	Known as the "Waterwall Mountains" by the non-demihumans, these 
form the boundary between the Western Kingdom and the Frontier. The 
foothills below the mountains, particularly the area east of 
Hillsburrough between the North and South forks of the Eastern Arc 
River, have already seen many large battles between expanding 
demihumans and monstrous bands - even a few armies claiming that they 
were sent by the Great Alliance (thought broken up 300 years ago by the 
Council of Nine).
	The Eastern mountains still really aren't safe, despite all the 
traffic they see. In addition to the bandits that haunt the lonelier 
corridors of the Frontier Road, there are all manner of known and 
unknown monsters that lurk in the higher portions of the Eastern 
Mountains. White Worms, Frost giants, and Drow all haunt the mountains. 
Rumors of dungeons and evil castles popping up across the mountains are 
increasingly common, and the nature of the mountains - with their high 
peaks, steep slopes, and few navigable passes - make these rumors 
difficult to investigate, let alone confirm or squash.
	Regardless of any of this, the Eastern Mountains are definitely 
proving to be the passport to the future of the Kingdom, for better or 
worse.
