Mountaintops of the Giants is a region in Elden Ring.
Overview
The northern Mountaintops were once the home of the Fire Giants, after they claimed them from the ice dragons. At the birth of the Erdtree, the forces of Queen Marika the Eternal and Godfrey, First Elden Lord marched up the mountain and put the Giants to the sword. With the Giants defeated, the Flame of Ruin was confined within the Giants' Forge atop the mount, and the Age of the Erdtree began.
The Fire Monks, who were left behind to watch over the Flame of Ruin, can be found patrolling the region. They are often accompanied by the Guilty: thorn sorcerers who were banished to the north. Their fortress, the Guardians' Garrison, sits on the eastern side of the mountain.
The Zamor Ruins in the south-west are the home of an ancient clan of Zamor Warriors. They were ancient enemies of the Fire Giants, and are regarded as heroes due to their actions in the War Against the Giants.
The Mountaintops were also home to the astrologers, neighbours of the Giants and predecessors to the modern Glintstone Sorcerers. The ruins of their civilisation can be found in the central Mountaintops.
The northernmost section of the Mountaintops is dominated by Castle Sol, where the site of an eclipse once inspired dreadful awe. Half of a medallion that will grant access to Miquella's Haligtree can be found here, protected by Commander Niall.
The medallion can be used at the Grand Lift of Rold to gain access to the Consecrated Snowfield, which sprawls to the west of the Mountaintops. The Albinaurics, and others who revere Miquella, seek this sacred land in the hopes of earning the Empyrean's favour. Ordina, Liturgical Town is the final stop on the way to the Haligtree, and is home to the spirits of several Albinauric women.
