Located high up in the mountain range that separates the Citadel from the southern territories, Mount Tempus has the coldest climate in the Green Veil. This weather suits the Academy of Horology well, since its scholars prefer to remain indoors with a challenging textbook. In addition to its scholarly citizens, the mountain has a large working class, with it being the center of mineral mining. Visitors often visit when the snow first falls to enjoy the natural serenity and ski lodges.
