Introduction:

Slant-top Spire (or “Pedestal Slant-top Mountain”) is a lot like another such prominent solo peak which is located on Sao Tome and Principe island.  That tall, narrow, rocky/petrified formation/anomaly is known by a few different names.

  • Cão Grande Peak (“Great Dog Peak”)
  • Pico de São Tomé
  • Pico Gago Coutinho

It looks like a World Tree stump/trunk… because it is one.  …Maybe that says something about Slant-top here, too.

Dimensions & Layout

This mini-mountain is exactly what it sounds like; in the form of a tall, narrow pedestal, with a summit which is a slanted plateau.  It stands two thirds of a mile tall over the higher of the two military desert plateaus, and is 1.33 miles tall from its base down near the sheer cliff-face that is the edge of that same desert plateau.  This gives its summit plateau a view right over the top of the gigantic Auzdome, allowing it to see all the way out to the far corners of Inisfree; all the way out to Sotu (and half of the Sotu skyscrapers inside this downtown area’s half-mile-tall perimeter wall) in one direction, and all the way out over the entire military training area and its FOBs to the swamp region 90 degrees in the other direction.

Waterworks:

This needle-like mini-mountain looks more akin to a light-house or sky-high forest ranger lookout tower, except with one amazing distinction (other than the fact it is made out of solid rock); three waterfalls run all the way down from the sides of its summit-plateau, hugging its neck all the way down to its base, where they reach the mists and foam of their reception pools, never once being blown away from this mountain and out into the wind.  The key to this miraculous fountain and flow technology is how the water is electromagnetically better attracted to the hidden tracks designed specifically for such mile-high waterfall attractions.

Three Base Ponds:

The tributary feeding the water features of this landmark meets its base amidst one of its waterfall collection pools.  The 2nd of its waterfall collection pools connects via a stream to the moat of the nearby temple.  The 3rd of its three waterfall collection pools pours down to feed one half of the river of Inisfree’s largest canyon.

Special Features:

If you know what you’re looking at/for, you may be able to notice just how tree-like this landform of Inisfree really is.  Here are the other mega-tree (or mega-tree-like, at least) constructs/creations in our city:

  1. Bed & Breakfast Spire
  2. Devil’s Tower II
  3. Faux Volcano
  4. Flower Towers
  5. Gem Beacons
  6. Giant/Uber Baobab
  7. Guard Turrets
  8. Highway Volcano
  9. Kapok Helix hotel
  10. Mt. Auzmore
  11. our central mountain itself
  12. Sentry Towers
  13. The Palms hotel
  14. the Tree-castles

Why did so many “almost World Trees” get built when we were starting Inisfree?  There are no coincidences…

This structure is a tall but still fairly subtle hint/reminder that similar landforms might be the remains of World Trees, or of Titan bones or swords, or ancient skyscrapers of giants, etc..
