Mountains

The mountains are a dark and forbidding place. While they seem like they should be the brightest spot as they are the closest to the stars, it is just not so. They are so full of ravines and crevasses that it is practically impossible to scale the mountains to their peaks.

Mount Tragon
The largest mountain on Moon is Mount Tragon. According to some myths and songs, it was created by one of the ancient cave people by digging into the ground and piling the dirt on top. This would seem to explain the deep moat that surrounds the mountain. Mount Tragon supports the most intricate of Moon's cave systems.

The theory does seem to have credibility, if you consider how deep the cave system goes. Some tunnels lead so deep, most of the cave peoples have never seen the lowest levels. Most don't even know how deep the tunnels and chasms actually go. So certainly, enough earth is missing within Mount Tragon to explain the height of the mountain. There are many myth as to what really lives so deep.

Metallurgy in the Tragon Caves
It is said that the most secretive cave peoples practice dark arts and unspeakable crimes in the depths, and adventurers are warned not to explore too deep.

The "metal abuse" theory states that some mining techniques practiced in the deeper caves are dark artisan in nature, causing pain to the metals as they are harvested. Many adventurers carrying blades forged from drogue mined from the deep subterranean lakes claim they can feel "fear" emanating from the blades when they delve deep. Those strongly linked with their blades often cannot go beyond a certain depth, describing the fear as "agonizing."
