The '''Black Mountains''' (Olgish ''Minnarach'', Wertian ''Nadd Vindys'') are three mountain chains in the southwest of the [[Reknayan Mountains|Reknaya]], stretching from the southern end of [[Lake Dermon]] south to the [[Mountains of Lágon]], from the [[Minnis|Forest of Minnis]] to the [[Blue Ravine]], and from the Blue Ravine into the [[Ilathw Arnym|Fields of the Ilathw]], respectively. Named either for their location west of the [[Nassar Niom (road)|Black Road]], their dark forested hillsides, or their rich deposits of coal, they are only sparsely populated, mostly by [[Geranian people|Geranian]], [[Kattasi people|Kattasi]], and [[Olgish people|Olgish]] cattle farmers and miners, and considered one of the frontier regions of [[Lécaronian Empire|Lécaronian]] expansion. Both the river [[Ilathw]] and the river [[Dôkob]] rise from their mountains. | The '''Black Mountains''' (Olgish ''Minnarach'', Wertian ''Nadd Vindys'') are three mountain chains in the southwest of the [[Reknayan Mountains|Reknaya]], stretching from the southern end of [[Lake Dermon]] south to the [[Mountains of Lágon]], from the [[Minnis|Forest of Minnis]] to the [[Blue Ravine]], and from the Blue Ravine into the [[Ilathw Arnym|Fields of the Ilathw]], respectively.
