Because the EWF philosophy is based on the Theyalan culture of central Genertela, which is big on mountains (especially one big one in the centre, to answer the question after the singular form) and clouds.

Also note that the mountain ridges were interpreted as the spines (or in one extreme case, wings) of sleeping dragons by the EWF. Either this, or sleeping giants (like Quivin, the Good/Great/etc Giant chains in the eastern Rockwoods).
