Hrevart's Cairn

"Who slew the troll Gnorgrivnr 99 times in the night whilst his master fetched fire in the driving rain, and who dared not expire from his wounds until the monster's last ember rose with the dawn."
~An anonymous Draakfallian bard
  On the lower slopes of the southern face of Snowpoint Mountain in northern Draakfall, Hrevart's Cairn stands where he concluded his life. His master, Alger of Snowpoint, spent 10 years building the 70 foot monument. He cut the stones by hand from the quarry at Skalfront, the settlement Hrevart saved on his final night, and carried them on his back to the site. He would suffer no man to help him, for he could think of no other way to express his gratitude to his faithful companion.
