12.2.2.9 MOUNT DIO

During the Vernal Wars, Dionamus erected a spire on top a mountain to bless and heal all races, protecting them from the influence of the Soulless. In honour of His deeds the mountain later became known as Mount Dio. Near the end of the war, Dionamus entrusted a group of loyal loboshigaru and mugwumps to care for and maintain the spire. For many generations those settlers fulfilled their task without fail, yet as the mountain was rediscovered in recent years, the spire has fallen into disrepair, together with the settlement of the loboshigaru and mugwump. It is unknown how to reach this remote mountain, though rumours abound that experiments at the Arthar'rt Observatory had opened a way before its destruction in 445 CE.

Note: If the healing powers of the Spire of Dionamus are activated, those who are undead (or have a lichseed) and those who traffic in darkspirits will be cursed by the healing light. This means they will suffer a regeneration penalty while outdoors in sunlight. Everyone else will gain a regeneration bonus while outdoors in sunlight.
