Mourning-Stone

Article written by Uziel


The Mourning-Stone is a gigantic red rock that stands over two hundred feet tall. It is considered a holy site by the Uigan and is where they hang their Boyla, once each lord of the Uigan passes away. The Mourning-Stone is located in the Tamire, within the Vale of Princes in the foothills of the Ilquar Mountains.

The Ghost-Widows who prepared each Boyla for his final rest on the rock tend to the site. A pulley system has been setup on the rock, to easily allow the Ghost-Widows to have the bodies hauled onto the rock and lashed to it.
