1. Fur-clad monks pray toward the Mountain, scattering stones, water, and coals in its direction. They warn that only the worthy can climb it.
2. The Mountain appears on the horizon. A pack of 4 crag cats have descended, laying gems as bait for unsuspecting prey.
3. The Mountain’s shadow swells, covering the Realm most of each day. Animals are distressed, crops struggle in the gloom.
4. Seven peacock riders approach the Mountain. They claim their peacocks are so magnificent that nature simply gives way to them. They are mistaken.
5. Two Squires return from near the peak. Their Knights were killed by a pack of crag cats, the Squires killing the cats in revenge. They’re headed to the nearest Holding to seek their knighthoods.
6. Atop the mountain, a voice questions anybody at the peak. “Are you worthy?” Those who answer yes receive a brief vision of a glittering city. After leaving the Mountain it fades from the horizon.
