Ashmounts

The Ashmounts were enormous volcanoes in the Final Empire.

They were created by Rashek during his initial contact with the Well of Ascension to counteract his moving the planet too close to the sun. They are the source of Ashfall whose purpose was to fill the air with massive clouds of ash to keep the planet from overheating.

There were seven ashmounts in the Final Empire:

• Tyrian, in the Central Dominance, near Luthadel
• Zerinah, in the Southern Dominance, southwest of Luthadel
• Doriel, in the Southern Dominance, almost due south of Luthadel
• Faleast, in the Eastern Dominance, south-southeast of Luthadel
• Morag, in the Western Dominance, west-northwest of Luthadel
• Torinost, in the Western Dominance, north-northwest of Luthadel
• Kalling, in the Northern Dominance, northeast of Luthadel
