As Sorrow is the tallest peak in the Wrothgarian Mountains, the ancient Orcs of the early First Era used its heights as a burial ground for their chiefs and champions—the mightier the chief, the higher the Orcs placed his tomb.
Near the summit of Sorrow

Sorrow is the tallest mountain in the Wrothgarian Mountains, located east of Fharun Stronghold.

The mountain is used as the burial ground of many renowned Orcs in history, most famous being the founder of the first city of Orsinium, Torug gro-Igron, whose shrine is located at the very peak of the mountain.

However, almost no one ever goes to visit the shrines due to the dangers of the mountain, ranging from perilous weather and avalanches to the denizens themselves, as ogres reside here in great numbers.

There are three cooking fires in Lady Laurent's expedition camp, at the base of the mountain. Kharsthun's Complete Translation can be found on Abandarra-la's counter after the related quest. Things Stibbons Needs To Do and Lady Laurent's List To Do are on cots in the tent behind Abandarra-la.

There's a thieves trove in the ruined house east of Abandarra-la's store. Three wild echalettes relax in the snow behind that stone structure. A Pocket Mammoth wanders around not far from them. A woodworking survey can be found up the mountain to the south of the camp.

Frozen Orcs and dead Expedition Members are located on the mountain's slopes.

Notes[edit]

  • While scaling the mountain, numerous avalanches will occur. If hit by them, you are pushed a great deal away, with a likely chance of being knocked off the nearby cliffs to your doom.
  • On the first exterior section past the path to the summit, overall movement speed is reduced while the wind is raging.
    • When at the peak, this effect is even greater and persists 100% of the time, as your character shields themselves from the wind, and dodge rolling becomes impossible to perform, which makes it even harder to avoid the avalanches.
