| - The mountain is part of the Great Mountains chain though it may mostly stand alone, surrounded by Daventry's countryside at least one pass leads down from the Great Mountains to the foot of Daventry's mountain. At the base of the mountain is the Door itself, the door was made of oak, with a gold lock, it was heavy and swung open on hinges. Just inside the door, the cave system included great moss-covered and slippery stone staircases. The treacherous paths of the cave lead up to the Land of the Clouds, a plateau whose edges were surrounded by clouds and mist. When Graham was sent on the quest to find the Three Great Treasures of Daventry he discovered the huge door. But as it was locked (he could see the stairs through the keyhole), and he went elsewhere. Later after guessing an old gnome's name, he received an alternative way up to the Land of the Clouds via a Beanstalk vine grown from magic beans. Once he had procured the Magic Chest of Gold from a giant there, he travelled down through the mountain, through the door, and was back into the foothills of Daventry. At the time of Graham's quest through Daventry the mountain was just west of Lake Maylie to the northwest of Castle Daventry, but in time following his quest, it somehow shifted southeast of the castle near to the Ancient Well which has always lay near Castle Daventry, but may have shifted some itself. This was have been caused by the magical law of "containment" which affected the area during Graham's time, and possibly due to the magical flux that changes the world sometimes daily, or perhaps shifted by the great earthquakes that later ravaged the kingdom. Under Graham, Daventry prospered, and returning citizens rebuilt the town of Daventry which had gone into ruin in Edward's time, in time the town extended to the base of the mountain, and to the Ancient Well which became a source of water for the village. But later the Three-headed Dragon came from the north sowing destruction as it went. It made its home at the top of the mountain in the Land of the Clouds, and rent much damage to the area at the base of the mountain. Much of the town was left in ruins or crumbling at the base of the mountain, and to the north by the Dragon's destruction. The scattered fallen boulders from the mountain and debris of the remaining ruins lay at the base of the cliff near the former door, now left crumbling by the Dragon's destruction. To the south a great chasm had been created by one of the great earthquakes that ripped through the area forming what was to be known as the Great Tear Years later Alexander journeyed across the Great Snowy Mountains into Daventry, coming around the base of mountain near the door. The door had been shattered exposing the cave behind, and he saw the ruins of the once great town that lay near it. Alexander climbed the crumbly and steep stairs up to the Cloudland in order to save his sister who was going to be sacrificed to a Three-headed dragon that was terrorizing the kingdom. After defeating the dragon he freed his sister, and both travelled back down the mountain into Daventry through the caves. Following the return of his son and daughter, Graham enjoyed taking picnics to the mountain with his family and has been known to defeat a dragon or two there as well. Alexander climbed the gentle sloping backside of the mountain and headed souwest to reach western sections of Daventry on his way to the Floating Castle. Later Graham was returning from Lake Maylie which had shifted to the west of the Door into Mountain (no longer east of the mountain), climbed up the rise and looked down to his missing castle. later Graham and his family climbed down the slope once the castle had been restored. Beyond the summit of the rise lies a series of smaller hills.
