The Sunset Mountains

The Sunset Mountains are safe as houses, as long as you can fly and stay invisible. To pass over Yellow Snake pass, to reach the wise, old man, you must be flying. If you go down into the pass the Zhenterim will attack you if you're not invisible - they really don't like intruders.

North from Above Yellow Snake Pass (Ay) takes you to In The Air (Ia) and north again takes you to the Path to the Upper Peaks (Pu). If you go down, then down again from In the Air (Ia) you'll end up in the pass and can walk to Orofin easily.

The door to Inside a Stone House (Is) is locked. The wise, old man has the key but beware - he has a fireshield that killed Azrael when I got cocky.

If you'd like to make a quick run to this zone, we recommend the following directions, starting at The Common in Shadowdale: 4s2w5n6w3s8wswsw4s4wnwsws.
