Mount Paux

Mount Paux (Bereujiou: [pɔ]) in Beringion, right next to Avau-Paux, is one of the highest peaks of the Terratuens, rising high above the surrounding hills, clad in dark greens forests and meadows and the towering peak glistering in snow.

Mount Paux is easy to recognized due to its specific shape – it is very steep and rises sharply in the form of a tower, giving its nickname used by the people of Avau-Paux – bou Fate, the Tower.

A monument of the wonderful nature of Beringion, Mount Paux has also become a significant location in Beringion's culture – the Festival of Bards is held at its feet every five years.

Etymology
Uncertain, probably of a pre-Asatic origin. Paux is cognate to the Coeric name of the mountain - puíls [piːls].

Sometimes the mountain is called Mount Puíls instead.
