Lore:Horde Mountain

Vivec City, the remains of Horde Mountain

Horde Mountain was one of the eight monster children from the unholy union of Molag Bal and Vivec, who initially escaped being slain. Three former minor Chimer Houses helped subdue Horde Mountain for Vivec. The Warrior-Poet was overjoyed by this and consolidated these three houses into a new order, his personal guard, the Buoyant Armigers. Vivec then pierced Horde Mountain with Muatra, killing it. The Living God then dispersed the bones to form a new city for him and his Armigers, Vivec City, City of Swords. Almalexia blessed the city with her Ordinators to serve as its honor guard, and Sotha Sil blessed the holy city with a protective spell.

Notes

• Michael Kirkbride likened Horde Mountain to "Bruegel's Tower of Babel running around like a cosmic wire skirt frame across the desert".
