In the southern reaches of the Imsogrek mountains lies the Glascis glacier. This icy expanse is flanked by towering peaks reaching heights of 17,000 feet.

Glascis is the abode of death giants, undead, malevolent spirits, and other fell creatures. They are the remnants of Tinnanguth's genocidal campaigns against the area's inhabitants. These campaigns were a continuation of Tinnanguth's regional strategy that commenced during the Holentur War. As in the aforementioned conflict, Tinnanguth sought to seize the area's resources, particularly its gold. At the time, there were only two places near Tinnanguth that harbored gold deposits, one being the region around Agibandal and the other being Glascis. The decision to subjugate Glascis proved an arduous endeavor, persisting for decades. The giants and other humanoids of the area proved far more resilient than the Ethenorans. The wars escalated, with vengeance exacted upon entire villages, wiping them out completely. The Haunting of Glascis, a moniker for the malevolence now permeating the region, is said to be the consequence of Tinnanguth's murderous campaigns of genocide against the area's former populace.

The region's formidable resistance was spearheaded by the eldritch giants. Deeply versed in the arcane arts of shadow magic and necromancy, they conjured armies from the fallen on the battlefield. As the land grew haunted by undead and other sinister entities, threats more perilous than the Sussgurd armies, the living giants and their retinues migrated to Felbin. Today, they proclaim with a degree of pride, "our forebears roam Glascis as death giants".
