Wu Pi Te Shao Mountains The Wu Pi Te Shao Mountains were a series of mountain ranges in southwestern Kara - Tur . They were called the Peerless Mountains ( or " Wu Pi Te Shan Mo " ) and also spelled the Wu Pi Te Shar Mountains ( or simply " Wu Pi Te Shar " ) . They were the southern part of the great Yehimal range that dominated the continent . Geography . The Wu Pi Te Shao Mountains stood south of the country of Tabot ( whose southern borders extended into the mountains ) east of the lands of the Utter East ( specifically Konigheim and Vanesci Hamlet , on the south side of Phantom Pass ) , and north of the Sempadan Forest . In the middle , the mountains branched sharply , with one arm running to the south and two to the east , together enclosing the Hanya Maut Wasteland and the Medan Perang Grasslands . In fact , some mapmakers divided the range into the Northern Wu Pi Te Shao Mountains , those which stood directly south of Tabot and north of the Hanya Maut Wasteland , and the Southern Wu Pi Te Shao Mountains , which stood to the west . The southern branch joined via a narrow neck with the World Pillar Mountains in the continent of Zakhara . The two western branches , meanwhile , linked to the extensive Shao Mountains network of southern Kara - Tur ; these were separated by the Medan Perang upland . Description . The lower slopes of the mountains , those facing Tabot and greater Kara - Tur to the north and northeast , were swathed in lush vegetation , and experienced warm and humid weather . Nevertheless , Tabot suffered avalanches , mud - slides , dust - storms , and bitterly cold winds descending from the glaciers . The Peerless Mountains steadily grew to soaring heights , with frozen and jagged peaks . These proved an insurmountable barrier to the Tabotans . Locations . The Northern Wu Pi Te Shao Mountains held Kemati Valley and Keru ' ai Valley , while the Southern Wu Pi Te Shao Mountains held Senja Plateau and the forested Kaget Valley , which could be reached from the Medan Perang Grasslands via the Tentu Pass . The Shao Mountains Trail ran east out of the Southern Wu Pi Te Shao Mountains and to Tangkap Oasis in the very center of the Hanya Maut Wasteland . In the western mountains , lying beside a glacier was the high Forbidden Plateau . It could only be reached by the Phantom Pass . The Web Mountains were an area of the range lying between Konigheim in the Utter East and the Herne ' s Wood part of the Sempadan Forest . In the far southwestern reach , beyond Konigheim and the Web Mountains , were the Puzzle Palace and the Hall of Wonder . A secret , major temple to Grumbar was hidden within the Wu Pi Te Shao Mountains . Typical of its kind , it would be concealed in a natural cavern or else cunningly crafted to resemble the surround terrain . A large spelljammer port called the Dock was operated by the arcane at the centre of the largest glacial expanse of the Wu Pi Te Shao Mountains . Inhabitants . Yeti dwelled in Wu Pi Te Shar . Regularly , evil yeti gathered into packs and came down to hunt the people of Tabot , harassing the monasteries and killing or kidnapping lama s . Atop the Forbidden Plateau stood the Kingdom of Nix , which was home to goblin s and harpies . History . In Shou Year 2339 ( 1089 DR ) , a massive yeti pack hunt known to the Tabotans as the Kume Sa Yeti descended from Wu Pi Te Shar to raid Frekang Gompa . The yeti slew or carried off 280 lamas of the gompa ' s 400 - strong population . In Shou Year 2607 ( 1357 DR ) , the yeti emerged from Wu Pi Te Shar once again to raid Nafeen Gompa , killing 23 and causing great damage . Some Tabotans feared the coming of another Kume Sa Yeti , and the authorities in Thok organized a hunting expedition against them .
