Pyrène is a realm of sprawling caverns beneath a densely forested mountain range. Here the Bekrydes, cave dwelling humans, have formed a kingdom. The Bekrydes live troglopastoral lives, herding Cave Cows and Blind Goats through their vast caverns in search of mushroom meadows and muck fields filled with nutritious mineral. With the aid of ancient giants skilled in crafting and farming the Bekrydes have spread to the mountains and forests surrounding their cavernous realm. The Bekrydes are primitive by most standards, but with the guidance of the Basajaunak and the Jentilak, they have learned how to craft metal and now the Bekrydes field small groups of elite warriors with metal armaments. In the mountains above the Pyrène caverns lies mount Anboto, where the Sorginak gathers. These servants of a primordial storm deity have been allies of the Jentilak since time immemorial. Now they aid the Bekryde kings as a favor to the Jentilak. In the mountains also live the Tartalo, sheep herding cyclopses of limited mental faculties.
