Dreadmist Peak[48, 18] is a mountain northwest of the Crossroads in the Northern Barrens. As you climb to the top of the Peak, the atmosphere becomes red and foggy. At the top is the home of a group of Burning Blade cultists. They protect the Demon Seed which is in the Dreadmist Den.
The orange miasma is residuum from an ancient demonic curse.[1]
