The Mountains of Mōrya are the northwesternmost mountain range of the Reknaya, separating the deserts of Wat and Erkenma from the Geranian Heath and the Dārǫ Mōrya in the Celdic Steppe.

Etymology

The mountains take their name from the basin to their immediate north, in the Western Celdic language called the Dārǫ Mōrya ‘gifted land’, for the crucial role it played in early Olgish—Celdic relations.

The first Olgish settlers called the area Lamparkaminna ‘mountains (away) from Parka’, possibly a calque of the (lost) Andarian name.
