WINDSCORCH MOUNTAIN
The proud twin peaks of Windscorch Mountain have loomed far over Arceliaze since the day the first settlers pitched their tents countless millennia ago. However, the poor landmark is often besmirched with low-level thugs and gang members setting their base in one of the many caves that dot the mountainside.
It's a common first stop for Arceali Guild Members, as the only mooks dumb enough to make camp in the most recognizable landmark in Arcea make for good fodder for upstart teams.
Several bits of old folklore lie with the hills of Windscorch. Billowing winter phantoms screaming out a chilling breeze from the mountain tops, prowling humans in the woods in the dead of night, Poke'mon going missing in the dark and endless caves. Urban legends often crop up regarding the remote and quiet mountain.
The taller, Southwestern peak is called "Veisha" while the smaller, Northeastern peak is "Nula". The oldest surviving tale from the early Arcean tribes tell of the Onix sisters that vowed to hold one another until their feud was settled, and they now sit still embracing as Windscorch Mountain, a symbol of determination and honor in diplomacy over violence. The mountain was formally called 'Veichnulach' in ancient times, derived from the ancient names of the peaks, "Veich" and "Nulach" which eventually became their modern names.
Like many teams before, Team Azure was forced to start their guild work clearing mooks from Windscorch Mountain and retrieving some stolen goods. However, this would launch the both of them straight into a spiraling adventure and conspiracy.
