Peladon Mountain (Sondergaard Laboratory & Mineral Exploration Region)

The jagged slopes of Peladon’s mountain encompass both abandoned Solonian ruins and the hidden regions where Sondergaard’s lab and mineral exploration tunnels are carved into the living rock. The air thickens with dust from ionized stone and the acrid tang of disturbed mineral deposits, while collapsing tunnels create sporadic avalanches of debris. Inside, both the lab chambers (claustrophobic spaces lined with ancient tablets and flickering tech, half-buried under rubble) and the exploration tunnels (twisting veins of stone slick with condensation, lined with emergency lighting and prone to sudden collapses) share the same unstable geology. Both areas groan under shifting weight, demanding answers before the mountain’s fury buries everything—lab and tunnels alike.
