Dragon Mountain (Sovereign Stone trilogy)

Dragon Mountain is a fictional place in The Sovereign Stone trilogy by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman. It is located somewhere near Vinnengael (Old or New is to be confirmed) and is the residency of the 'Monks'.

These monks are known as the Keepers of Time because they record history's greatest events on their bodies. After death, their bodies are preserved by the effects a special tea that they drink throughout life, and are stored in the monastery as a kind of 'living library.'

The monks are led by the five heads of the orders, known only by the name of the element they represent - Fire, Earth, Air and Water, and each takes the form of the race associated with the element. Fire is a dwarf, Earth is a human, Air is an elf, and Water is an ork. The last monk is known only as 'The Fifth Monk,' and represents the fifth element, the Void.

The Five monks are actually dragons that protect the monastery. However, they are not often needed as the monks are seen as neutral and are revered by all races.
