Inexorable Stone's realm form is a range of mountains. Notable features of these mountains include polished mirrored cliffs that always face the same direction and reflect landscapes that do not match the local landscape. There are also silken falls, where impossibly long sheets of silk fabric cascade down from caverns like waterfalls, endlessly woven by spider-like creatures in the vertiginous caves. Between the mountains are clockwork valleys with massive gears and spring-wheels that slowly move the mountain range itself. The valleys also contain pools of toxic lye.
