The High Mountains

Home of the nearly legendary High Elves, much can be said about the High Mountains, but how much of it is true, and how much of it is merely legend?  One thing can be certain, the Golden Mountains, as they are sometimes called, certainly are beautiful.  Though perhaps hard to travel, it is certainly possible to live here for as long as necessary.  Animals and plants abound, and winter snowpeaks melt to create the purest of streams in the summer.  From these high peaks, it is even possible to catch a glimpse of a Gryphon below upon their fields.
