Misty Mountains

The Misty Mountains was the mountain range in the southern region of Asmodean, located adjacent to the Babul Desert. Typically shrouded in fog for much of the year after April, they were known for containing ruins from the Magic Kingdom Levianta's era.

History

Early History

During the time of the Magic Kingdom Levianta, the mountains were filled with villas for the Leviantan nobles. After the Levianta Catastrophe, the area became deserted ruins over time. At some point, the Marlon Spoon had been hidden in the tomb under the ruins' altar.

Venomania Event

During the following century, the mountain range became part of the Beelzenian Empire's territory along with the rest of Asmodean and became a historic site for the nearby settlement, Mystica. In EC 126, Elluka Clockworker visited the old ruins and prayed at its altar, sacrificing a jis tiama octopus to conjure a rainstorm upon nearby Mystica. Although the drought plaguing the town had ended, the mountains were shrouded in a thick fog for most of the year and they began being called the "Misty Mountains". Later on, in EC 136, I.R. and Duke Sateriasis Venomania were led to the mountain range by Lilien Turner and proceeded to enter the old ruins in search for the Marlon Spoon. After the sorceress led Venomania to the altar, he unlocked the hidden passage and recovered the magic tool for her before leaving.

Daughter of Fog

In EC 477, the Golden Dragon Unit passed through the mountains to aid the Asmodean army in the Babul Desert against the Kingdom of Lucifenia. Due to a defection from one of the other units, the group camped within the ruins while awaiting further orders. Gast Venom defected two weeks after when General Shalgham ordered for the "cursed" altar to be destroyed. After Shalgham was murdered by his step-daughter, Gast was confronted by Abyss I.R. and rendered unconcious, losing the Venom Sword to the sorceress as a result. The next day, Gast was found and taken back to the capital. After his exile, Gast visited the mountaintop ruins several times in an attempt to contact his dead sibling but eventually gave up when she failed to appear.

Leviantan ruins atop the mountain range. Although originally housing nobles from the Magic Kingdom's era, they became deserted ruins after its destruction. At the center of the ruins was an altar. They were used as a camping site by the Golden Dragon Unit during its war with Lucifenia.

Tomb

An old crypt from the Magic Kingdom's era located at the center of the mountains' ruins, beneath the rock. The Marlon Spoon was laid within its cofffin along with numerous jewels and gold coins. The entrance to the tomb was hidden underneath the ruins' altar.
