[@ArcaneUnit] It is near a mountain near Jerusalem, yes. In fact Jerusalem itself has often been called Zion. The uses of the name Zion itself are a bit hazy, but today it's most often used to refer to a safe haven. I have often heard it used myself this way. For example a holy warriors cry for service, "I don't want peace in Zion!" or a philosopher not wanting to ignore the questions that everyone asks simply to have a peace of mind, or "peace in Zion". Here, I found this...

"The Jewish longing for Zion, starting with the deportation and enslavement of Jews during the Babylonian captivity, was adopted as a metaphor by Christian Black slaves in the United States, and after the Civil War by blacks who were still oppressed. Thus, Zion symbolizes a longing by wandering peoples for a safe homeland. This could be an actual place such as Ethiopia for Rastafari or Israel for some of the Igbos in Nigeria for example. For others, it has taken on a more spiritual meaning—a safe spiritual homeland, like in heaven, or a kind of peace of mind in one's present life."


	No, this doesn't take place in Israel, but for all I care it could. The location doesn't really matter to me. The founders of the city on the mountain wanted it to be a safe place. A haven for the remnants of man. So, they thought the name was appropriate.
