{{Mountain Ranges of Elemara Sections

|Introduction=The '''Altea Mountains''' is a vast, horseshoe-shaped mountain range that encircles the lush Altea, forming a natural barrier that separates the fertile lands of Altea from [[Terasil]].

|Etymology=The name "Altea Mountains" is derived from its teardrop (horseshoe) shape, believed by the [[Sidami]] to be formed by the tears of [[Oras]], weeping over the fate of the earth. Ancient myths suggest that the valley within the range was a sacred gift, a place where the land could heal and flourish.

|Geography=The Altea Mountains is defined by its enclosing arc of peaks, creating a self-contained ecosystem within Altea

|Climate=The Altea Mountains exhibits two distinct climates:

* High Elevations: Arid and cold, with strong winds and little vegetation.

* Altea: Mild and fertile, with temperate seasons and steady rainfall, creating the only viable farmland in Terasil.

|Flora=* Velthar Vine – A climbing plant that thrives on the valley walls, its fruits prized for their healing properties.

* Orash Root – A tuber cultivated by Orasians, essential to valley agriculture.

* Sunsong Trees – Tall, golden-leaved trees found only in the valley, absorbing energy from the harsh Terasil sun

|Fauna=* Valeborn Elk – Large, horned beasts that roam the valley’s meadows.

* Tharok Falcon – A predatory bird that soars above the mountains, hunting along the valley’s edge.

* Lun-Watch Hound – A stone-skinned guardian beast bred for protecting the valley’s fortifications.
