Gossamer Mountains
The Gossamer Mountains form the western reaches of Shenmen where it meets Songbai.1
The Gossamer Mountains' most notorious residents are the jorogumos, predatory spider-women who haunt the mountain range's desolate peaks and valleys.2 Just as infamous are the Path Maidens, cursed undead who abandoned their faith in Pharasma at the moment of their deaths and now haunt the mountains in search of the living. The Path Maidens and the jorogumo may have some understanding with each other, or perhaps the jorogumo may have devised strategies for evading them.3
Shenmen's capital of Yin-Sichasi is located in the northern reaches of the Gossamer Mountains.4
