Summary
Since several of the volcanoes of the High Reaches range erupted violently in the middle of the Third Pass, the Powers That Be have tasked the wizards of the High Reaches region with watching the range for untoward volcanic or tectonic activity and attempting as best they can to control it.
There has been no comparable event since that time, but the possibility remains, and as a result of the Powers' unwillingness to divide their forces in the region, as well as the High Reaches' sparse population, the number of interventions requiring wizardly attention in the area is generally low. Most of the High Reaches wizards focus their energies on theoretical concerns: improving their abilities with the Speech, composing spells for other wizards, and the like.
It is the twelfth turn of the Ninth Pass. All of that is about to change.
