Huangshan pines on the needles
Cloud Sea Peaks
Granite needles in a sea of mist, the sacred mountains of the centre.
Inspired by the Huangshan, the Yellow Mountains of Anhui. Pale-granite spires 28 to 64 blocks high, cut in steps like real joints, Huangshan pines growing sideways out of the cliffs like the famous Guest-Greeting Pine, snow above height 170, very dense mist.
The Cloud Cliff Sanctuary stands here. The Orthodox Alliance's capital is planned in these mountains (see Factions).
