Sundermount

Sundermount is a location on the World map in Dragon Age II. A number of main and side quests take place there, and it is home to a clan of Dalish elves.

Description

Kirkwall is guarded by Vimmark Mountains to its north, the tallest of which is Sundermount. The mountain has a fearsome reputation. Legend says it was the site of a vicious battle where the ancient Tevinter Imperium and the Arlathan elves unleashed horrors into the waking world, and unholy creatures prowl the heights to this very day, unaware that the war for which they were summoned is long since over.^[1] A clan of Dalish Elves have settled here, led by their Keeper, Marethari.
