Top of the World

Top of the World! Climbing the highest mountain to witness the beauty and magic that hide above the clouds at the edge of the world. But tread carefully, one wrong move and an avalanche would rain down.

“There must be some calculable proportional number between the beauty of a location and the danger.” - Ida Holly

High in the alpine reaches above the veil of clouds where hides a world witnessed most by gods, Where the heavens and earth meet. Few dare to make the days long climb to the top, fewer still survive to the top.

They say, Palidians from all over the world climb the mountain to reach the aurora which many believe is a gate to the celestial realms. A pilgrimage to bask in the physical presence of the divine realm of their patrons or even, if they are worthy, speak directly with their god. But to reach the gate they must first defeat the challenges of the ascent. Avalanches, Ice, and the cold. To speak nothing of the Roc’s high roosts or worst of all- the Yeti.

But there could be no greater reward than basking in the celestial light of the aurora.
