Byne Mountains

The Byne Mountains (Dunese: Bína; Fónnish: Beonagh, Dael: Bánagh; ultimately from Aranese: Bønach, “Land-Spine”), or simply The Byne, are a large range of mountains in eastern Atheryin. They form the natural western boundary of the traditional Dún region, the homeland of the Dunaan people.

The Byne Mountains are the most heavily glaciated mountains in Atheryin, due to the heavy precipitation they receive from the warm, coastal Dún, which they rise quite prominently over. Lower elevations of the range are typically heavily forested, with much of the central Byne region being comprised of dense temperate oceanic rainforests.
