Mountain Heart

Mountain Heart is the name given by the people of the Valley of Gold to a cavern on the Mountain where the bukshah goes to feed every winter on the grey fungus sealing the ice creeper nest as part of their life cycle. It was also here that Evan of the Bukshah, Fliss of the Silks and Bron got trapped and died, and where Rowan, Zeel, Shaaran and Norris found their bones centuries later.
