(Redirected from Khum Karta)
The Khum Karta Mountains, the mountains that scrapes the stars[4], are a mountain range located on the planet Chogoris.[1]
Overview
The fortress-monastery of the White Scars Chapter, Quan Zhou, is located here, on the highest peak of the mountains.[2][3] The road leading to the fortress is lined with silver spears[1], on which are mounted the severed heads of the White Scars' greatest enemies.[1][2]
Named mountains in the Khum Karta range include Mount Kardunn, where the White Scars' funerary rites, known as the kal damarg, are practised.[3]
