Geier Reach
The mountain range that dominates Stensia, the Geier Reach, defines it utterly. This chain grows steadily higher in elevation as it moves from the borders with Gavony and Kessig toward the province's outer edge. The shape of the Geier Reach creates two long valleys in the province, and foothills separate those valleys into numerous, isolated segments. Between the first and second ridge of the Geier Reach lie the scattered dales called the Inland Valleys. There the mountain peaks are forested, whereas in the chain's middle the tree line gives way to bare rock; at its verge, the peaks disappear into the clouds. The highlands are dotted with caves and crevasses that are reigned by vultures, bats, and other larger creatures. The passes through Geier Reach are few and precious; all who travel into or out of the province must use them. In the remotest parts of the Geier Reach, legends tell of dragons, brutal fire-breathers that prey on any creature that strays into their territories.
