"The spirit of justice in each and every soul living here. It is part of the culture, of the blood." -Bao Fatebringer.
The Mountain of Justice is the Eastern-most Mountain among The Mountains of Magic. It is home primarily to Silver and White Salaman. It is associated with Cold. It is the birthplace of many of Wintervale's best Watchmen, Attorneys, Prosecutors, and Judges, and many such professionals come from all over the country to study there, including the legendary prosecutor Lawrence Ashwing.

Trivia[]
- Each of The Mountains of Magic are based on a work of classical Chinese literature. The Mountain of Justice is based on works centering on Bao Zheng. To further differentiate the style, and because the DM, James Fisher is a fan of the material, it also takes inspiration from the Ace Attorney franchise.
