(Gyr Abania)
“Upon spying a sharply pointed summit from the deck of his flood-tossed ark, Nyunkrepf mistook this craggy formation as the isle of Yorn. Though the mountain is quite some distance from the island in the Northern Empty, the appellation nevertheless remains to this day.
— In-game description
Mount Yorn is an area in The Peaks, Gyr Abania.
Castrum Abania
This imperial Citadel rises from the mountains on the eastern edge of the Peaks. After the Battle of Silvertear Skies, Gaius was not eager to repeat the disastrous fate of the Agrius, and ordered the construction of a cannon capable of repelling even the most gigantic of adversaries.
Radiata
A modest village atop Mount Yorn, this settlement was populated by citizens who had submitted to imperial rule. The village's name is said to be a Garlean word representative of the lines of loyal workers which radiated out towards the nearby Castrum Abania and Specula Imperatoris.
The Ironroad
Laid upon the rocky ground to assist with the smooth conveyance of supplies, this metalclad path stretches between Castrum Abania and Specula Imperatoris. For the native Gyr Abanians, its uniformly dull and black surface was another unsettling reminder of their continued subjugation.
Coldhearth
Tucked away in a forgotten corner of the Peaks, this sleepy hamlet is known for producing mercenaries, a tradition that was born out of necessity. With its lands yielding precious little bounty, youths took to leaving hearth and home behind to trade their sword arms for coin, most notable among them being Raubahn Aldynn, the Bull of Ala Mhigo.
