Land of the Clouds

From King's Quest Omnipedia

The Land of the Clouds is a land high above Daventry; the home of giants and dragons. It is accessible by climbing a beanstalk or through a stairway (& suspended wooden bridges) that travels up through the mountains. The place is dangerous not just because of the denizens who inhabit it, but due to the fact that here is very little solid ground. Much of the footing is obscured by clouds.

The land is located on the summit of a mountain within the Great Mountains range near Daventry. It was normally reached through a tunnel that winds is way up through the mountains (however Graham was known to reached it via a Magic Beanstalk). It is a mysterious land where clouds touch the earth (the top of a mountain literally overhangs into the clouds). It overhangs over Daventry appearing as a mysterious cloud looming over the land from below. Due to the nature of the clouds obscuring the edges of the summit, it is very difficult to tell where the summit ends, and clouds begin, thus making it easy for adventurers to plummet to their death if they aren't careful.

Graham visited the land on his journey to find the three treasures of Daventry. He outwitted a Giant living there, by waiting for him to fall asleep, and then taking the Magic Chest of Gold.

Years later the Giant left its home, most likely having been scared off by the Three-headed Dragon that had taken up residence there. Alexander went to the Land of the Clouds in order to save his sister Rosella from the dragon.

The Realm of the Sun lies far above the Land of the Clouds.
