DC 10: Travelers through the mountain road are often harassed by bandits. On one cliff, overhanging the road, villagers and caravan drivers alike have seen lights flicker and then go out.
DC 15: The forest’s trees grow in a unique pattern that allows elves to set up platforms high above the ground. These particular elves believe that "not-elves" are divinely ordained to serve as target practice, so caution is warranted.
DC 20: The best way to reach the mountain fortress without aggravating the local giant population is to travel through a strangely-shifting network of ice tunnels. Somehow, you have a very good idea of which turns to take through the tunnels.
DC 25: The old dwarven forge left lasting marks on the mountain. Somewhere in the mine tunnels, there is a dimensional overlap with the Plane of Elemental Fire.
DC 30: Several map fragments suggest that a cluster of massive gems can be found deep inside a tunnel network within the Plane of Elemental Earth. In point of fact, there is an entire city carved out of emeralds.
DC 35: The emerald city is secretly ruled by a dragon illusionist with a mysterious hoard.
