| - A holy mountain in the Five Chains Isle of Tjaratananna Source: Guide to Glorantha
- History: This caern was so known for its power and holiness that the Native Americans have legends filled with going near this holy place for their Spirit Quests, and even the White Man has heard of its power. It was destroyed utterly by the Wyrm around 1857 when the natives were expelled from the territory, leaving it defenseless; gold miners came, creating the leaks to the surface; and the growing Wyrm was able to corrupt the territory. In recent years, the Wendigo have returned to this old holy site, working to reclaim it from the Wyrm and make it into what it once was.
- The mountain which gives the island its name is a lone peak which soars into the clouds beyond the City of the Winged Ones. At the top, a caldera shelters a cave, the Aerie of the Oracle. The jagged cave opening at the pinnacle of the mountain is the Oracle's Cave. Inside dwells the Sacred Oracle of the Winged Ones, the philosophical head of the community. Her cave is a place reserved only the most worthy souls.
