The Westering Mountains is a mountain range to the north of Daventry.

Background

It is one of the native homes of sloks. It is apparently located somewhere near the Spasky Hills and the Vale of Willows about three weeks to the north of the Kingdom of Daventry.[1]

The mountains are likely part of the Great Mountains that border to the north of the Kingdom of Daventry. Based on their name, they must alligned in a westerly direction.

Alexander passed through a section of the great mountains that lay from west to east to reach the valley where Daventry was located. This may be the location of the outcrops of pink granite six hundred miles to the north of Daventry.

Behind the scenes

The scale of the continent between the novels and games are different. In the games and companion it only takes a few days to cross the continent. It takes less than a day to cross the Great Mountains into Daventry from the coast. The continent lies about a day from Llewdor. It is said that most lands on the continent exist within a day or two from each other.

in the novels the pink granite outcrops and Westering mountains lie three weeks/600 miles to the north of Daventry.
