Fon Mar
Mount Orange Morning Sunshine is rumoured to have once extended into the nether reaches of the dark-side, and that it gave birth to the collection of islands that Fon is located on by sacrificing its base. The mountain is home to the Mar Fly, so large parts of it are avoided except, again, during the hot season. All of the useful metal has been plundered from the mountain already. Quite a bit of stone has been quarried from the northern slope of the mountain, but such activity has ceased, and rock is now imported when necessary.
Two swaths of land leading away from Mount Orange Morning Sunshine are largely avoided, as they are the travel paths of the Mar Flies. The path of the Mar Flies was, only a generation ago, constricted to two well-marked paths. This was done by making a modification to the ground in those two areas, and to the underground rivers that flow from the mountain to Fon Milikin and Fon Alad. The rivers were magically created long ago to take the nutrients from the Mar Fly Nesting grounds on the mountain peaks back to the soil of Fon Milikin and Fon Alad. Bubbles from the magically carbonated waters filter up through the ground. The scent of the Sickle Root in the air just above these rivers guide the Mar Flies and warn any visitors to stay away. Wind can cause the Mar Flies paths to widen, so traveller beware!
Also on Fon Mar is The Playground. The Playground consists of twelve plots of land that may be reserved for magical research. There are, in addition, three plots that are military-owned. Trespassing on the Playground is not allowed, to protect the magical secrets being forged and to protect the trespasser. A lot of magical research is confined to the Playground; any that could be harmful to people or objects, any that could be infectious, any that might consume a large amount of air, or affect the soil, and most importantly anything whose precise effect is not be known. Plots may be reserved by any citizen of the upper class of Fon, but preference is given to groups. For this reason, many "guilds," "conclaves," "orders," and "sects" are formed and recognized on Fon. And all seek to have good relations with the Playground Administration, although that organization is notorious for being upright and just.
