The Mighty Hillside

Rising from the rolling grasslands to dominate the landscape, the Might Hillside is the site of the well known Aki art piece, Stalking Amarochi. The mountain is a holy site for the Aki tribes as well as a popular rest stop for travelers between Yosai and Shinzo Prefectures.

Geography

This mountain rests on the border between Yosai and Shinzo prefectures, rising up out of fertile grasslands which hem in the roads and trail down to the edge of the Boiling Lake. The area is known for its hotsprings which are said to have a mythical rejuvenating property.

History

As a holy site of the Aki people as well as a Border marker between two provinces the Mighty Hillside has seen its fair share of battles, mostly during the Succession Wars between the Satochi and Cedarbeard Clans. 50 years ago the Aki people, offended by the Hivokians habit of making the hotspirings of the mountain a leisure spot attacked the Hotel set on the Mountain. This did little good as once the Aki has moved on more Hivokians came to reclaim the building and restart the business.

Tourism

The combination of the Aki art piece and the local hotsprings makes the Mighty Hillside a popular destination for travelers in Hivokia. To that end an enterprising dwarf named Risa Jadeheart has established a Hotel on its slopes.
