Overview
Dragonhead (ドラゴンヘッド [dragonhead] in Japanese) is the central area of Coerthas, in the Central Highlands. To its north lie the Gates of Judgement and beyond them the holy city of Ishgard. The road Haldrath's March runs to the gates from the south-east, past the Skyfire Locks where also the cliff Witchdrop is located. At its end is the Griffin Crossing, a bridge leading to Fields of Glory. To the north of the road is the local aetheryte camp, as well as the sub-area Prominence Point, the beastman stronghold Zahar'ak, an aetherial gate to the Howling Eye and a cave to the northern region Crooked Fork. West of Haldrath's March, in the very center of Dragonhead, lies a mountain called the Nail. On its southern reaches is the entrance to Dzemael Darkhold.
Continuing west from the Gates of Judgement is the Stone Vigil, and beyond at the western edge of the region is the Gargoyle Crossing, a stone bridge across the Sea of Clouds that surrounds Dragonhead on most sides. To the south-east lies the sub-region of Boulder Downs.
In addition, completely unaccessible from the rest of the Central Highlands, is the area of Feathergorge. This also is connected to the Howling Eye.
Locations
Howling Eye
The Howling Eye (ハウリングアイ石塔群 [howling eye sekitou-mura] or 'Howling Eye, the gathering of stone monuments' in Japanese) is the stage for fighting the primal Garuda. It is probably physically located somewhere deep in the mountains, but as Garuda's power keeps up a continuous hurricane around it, it's impossible to determine the location.
There are two connections (aetherial gates) to the Howling Eye, a heavily guarded one from northern Feathergorge and an unstable one from north-eastern Dragonhead, a bit north from Zahar'ak. Both are within caves.
Stone Vigil
Stone Vigil is one of the Vigils of Ishgard. They are a series of fortresses scattered around the edge of the Sea of Clouds, all within viewing distance. The Stone Vigil is the closest one to the city in the south-west.
