The third mount is far less volcanically active than either Chamada or Khalas. In fact, it is quite cold and often covered by snowfalls. The light of scattered volcanic vents is akin to the light cast by a full moon, making navigation across Mungoth's icy slopes difficult. Even that light is sometimes snuffed out by a heavy snow and ash fall. The combined snow and acidic ash are dangerous to travelers without shelter. The ice that accumulates on Mungoth's slopes gives a –4 circumstance penalty on Climb checks.
Valley of the Outcast
A deep chasm contains a well hidden realm sheltered from the ever-present acidic snow. Built of equal pans basaltic rock and giant bones is a rough castle. The castle is scaled to the proportions of its master, an outcast fire giant wizard named Tastuo. Her eight siblings, fellow outcasts, also reside in the castle. Like their sister, all are either wizards or sorcerers. Yugoloths of the layer have several interlocking contracts with Tastuo, which helps ensure the valley's safety should her enemies ever find her. Tastuo never names those enemies, but her predicament makes her sympathetic to the plight of travelers seeking asylum. Thus, the Valley of the Outcast doubles as a way station for visitors in need, but only if they can find it.
