- "Long before the last of the Iron Lords descended into the Plaguelands, this peak was the domain of one of their own, Lord Felwinter."
- — Tyra Karn[1]
Felwinter Peak is a location near the Cosmodrome, overlooking the Plaguelands. At its summit lies Vostok Observatory and the Iron Temple, the ancient stronghold of the Iron Lords. The mountain is named after Felwinter, who ruled it as a Warlord for a time before he joined the Iron Lords and allowed them to build their headquarters there.[2][3]
History[edit]
During the 20th Century, Vostok Observatory was constructed atop the mountain. By the Golden Age, the observatory had been decommissioned and put under the care of the Vostok Observatory Historical Society as a public museum.
In the Dark Age, the mountain was claimed by a Warlord known as Castor, who ruled over a village at the foot of the mountain. On the run from Rasputin's Warsats and combat frames, Felwinter and his Ghost Felspring decided to fortify themselves at Vostok Observatory. Felwinter called on Castor to negotiate, but ended up killing Castor's Ghost and pushing him off the mountain. When Felwinter later joined the Iron Lords, he gave up the mountain on the condition that the people of the village at its foot would be protected. With the mountain under the control of the Iron Lords, Lord Silimar built the Iron Temple.
Later during the Dark Age, the Drifter, under the name Wu Ming, built and operated a bar known as the End of the World at the foot of the mountain, which was typically only visited by other Risen due to the wind and cold of the area.
Since the fall of the original Iron Lords, Lord Saladin locked away the Iron Temple and kept knowledge of the temple and the mountain to himself. Only after an attack from a resurgent House of Devils did Saladin return with the Guardians in tow. With the beginning of the SIVA Crisis, Felwinter Peak became the base of operations for Lord Saladin and the new generation of Iron Lords against the SIVA-augmented Devil Splicers.[4]
During the Red War, Guardian forces used the mountain as a Crucible site.
During the events in Season of the Seraph, Guardians were sent there to recover Felspring's remains at the Iron Temple in hopes to fix Rasputin while battling House Salvation forces.
