A map showing the full extent of the Mountains of Heaven in the southeastern lands of the Far East.
The Mountains of Heaven are a major mountain range located in the Far East of the Known World that form the border between southern Grand Cathay and the Kingdoms of Ind further to the southwest. Ind claims its side of the range as its territory, while Cathay claims the other, but the true power in the mountains is the Monkey King.[1][2a]
Although the dynasty of Cathayan Dragons who rule the Celestial Empire dislike the Monkey King, they are often forced into a humiliating alliance with him and his Monkey Warriors to defend attacks on Cathay's Southern Provinces from the Nagas of Khuresh, which lies to the southeast. This is a source of endless, ironic amusement for the Monkey King.[1][2a]
A subsidiary range of the Mountains of Heaven known as the Celestial Mountains stretches to the southwest from the main range into Ind.[2a]
