Saint Yusivailt's Rock rests in what is now the township of Glothfeeg on the westernmost end of the Shirdhain Lumeais peninsula in Asbardy. The rock is light grey and nearly four meters high. It rests on a slope near the beach.
The site is associated with a succession of legendary events. Named after the Arathracian saint of dragonslayers, the rock is reported by folklore to be the site where the saint slew a dragon that had menaced several nearby towns around the beginning of the thirteenth century (ca 1200 AI). Tuadbe legend identifies the place as the site where their ancestors, the ancient Neptultchi made landfall born within the colossal divinity, Ochyatsaktlochyá. Although generally rejected as rather unreliable, the occasion of the advent of Neptultchi Civilization to southwestern Pytharnia is thought by scholars to have begun in the fifth millennium before Salmakhamer. Moigthe legends describe the rock as the place where ancient heroes would best one another in combat and the site where an ancient witch-king made sacrifice to the gods. The role of the account of the Arathracian saint is seen by scholars as emphasizing that the previous civilizations were now subject to the theological and cultural supremacy of the Yophenthean Empire and later the Arathracian Church.
Today the rock is a protected heritage site and a popular attraction for local and international tourists and pilgrims.
