"Table Mountain is broad and flat and the Frost Walkers claim that the top of the mountain was cleaved off in an era before the Age of Ice," Ashlynn continued after shaking off the memories of iridescent horns cleaved in two by Nyrielle's ax and the helpless, blank expression on Hauke's face as he struggled against the curse the ancestors had left behind. "Whether that's true or myth, no one knows, and it's hard to see from Fortress Peak but I'm told there was once a vast city built atop the mountain."
"The Four Peaks is the name of the territory that the present High Pass will grow to encompass," Ashlynn explained. "Airgead Mountain was one of the original seven, but Dame Sybyll has defended that mountain for decades. She deserves the right to claim it and it is the 'littlest brother' in the range. Knife Peak will become their new southernmost holding, and Table Mountain will become their new northern border."
