Sunset Mountains
Mountains in The Western Heartlands
The Sunset Mountains are two ranges divided by the Far Hills, together forming an almost impassable wall between the Western and Eastern Heartlands.
Snowy ridges glow red at dusk above Sunset Vale, and the quarries cut into them gleam with black-veined marble.

The Sunset Mountains, with the Far Hills between them, form a high barrier between the Western and Eastern Heartlands and the eastern edge of Sunset Vale. Darkhold stands in them on our map.
