The Mountainhold is an ancient structure built eons ago, though most of the original structure has long either been built over or collapsed down the mountain.

The modern Mountainhold has its roots in The Imperium of Kartharadd, and was built using the ruins of the ancient site sometime in the third century. The fortress proved to be the center of Kartharaddi power in the south, from which they controlled most of the great river valley. It was here that the Kartharaddi fought off several Aversarian counter-invasions while they conquered Malcois, though the collapse of the Kartharaddi capital in the far north as well as the reformation of the Aversarian Legions by Aautokratir Eramos proved to be too much and the fortress became an Imperial center soon after.

The Mountainhold fell into disuse until Frodbrokna, where it first stood as a bastion against the Sjalvolki until it was bypassed by Eofwine, brother of the Witch-Breaker. Now it remains as the centerpoint for the waning number of humans now trapped in the Fog, and the centerpoint from which refugees are ferried south.
