Mount Wor

Mount Wor (also known as Mont Elim, see below) is the mountain that was formed during the The Unsundering. Pushed against Mount Wor is The Smoos of The Sickle, specifically Mount Garmore son Pellistamon, home of the child warrior tribe of the Smoo. The mountain has its own flora and fauna, for example The Nuerbarg Ants. The relationship between the size of Mount Wor, Mont Slightly-Taller-Than-Mont-Elim, and Mont Slightly-Taller-Than-Mont-Slightly-Taller-Than-Mont-Elim is a matter of fierce geographical and mystical debate.

Inhabitants

The Epic Wolf Men of Mount Wor and the Quilp built their civilizations around the newly created mountain. Cloistered within a haven at the base of the mount is the embedded fortress of The Gizmonic Arcanum. Its peak is the location of the fabled Cerulean Citadel.

Mount Wor remains on The Shield during The Resundering. A small cult of stark raving mad prophets known as Wortrops set up a village on its summit and watch for signs of The True Unsundering.

Later, a cliff of Mount Wor plays an important role in the Betrayal Of Princess Crystalcrown.

As Mont Elim

The term Mont Elim is the preferred name for Mount Wor in scholarly and esoteric writings, especially those of the Harbinger. The term Elim refers to a unit of measure of space, time and mood used by High Elemenstors engaged in inter-disciplinary writings at the intersection of High Elemenstation and timesorc'ley.

The theory that Mont Elim was originally a typo that was retained out of stubbornness is gaining prevalence amongst fans and scholars.
