Not so long ago, Groovy23 posted a puzzle where you had to find a "Royal Summit" . A clue was given in the OP, a crossword clue: 5, 4 _ _ _ _ _ _ E _ _ Just with this clue many found the mountain with a royal sounding name, but of course at first I found a completely different one. So here it is now, the one I found, for you to find! In a puzzle that I cleverly called "Royal Summit 2".

40 views and not one answer? I repeat: I found this by mistake, looking for the first "Royal Summit". So it should be easier to find! Some hints: The first time I saw the crossword clue in the first puzzle, I thought (wrongly) that the first word, being 5 letters, was pretty obvious, since we were looking for something royal... Another hint: in the first Royal Summit puzzle, one of the two words described the type of place. Not in this case: you have to add a word (not the same as in the first puzzle) to get the whole name. I will say no more for now.

I have accurately searched in a list of every single mountain of the planet, and there is no listed mountain starting with Royal and ending with something that fits the crossword. There is a Royal Peak, but it's not it... I have no idea how you found this mountain first but believe me, the other one was extremely much easier

When I saw the clue, I immediately thought of royal titles. There aren't too many with five letters...

Ok... it's doable, but let me tell you... If you found this one before Kings Peak... you have a very particular way of thinking

But seriously, come on. Royal. MY solution doesn't even have to change anything to the word and number of letters, unlike with "king - kings"! THAT was tricky!

Just with this clue many found the mountain with a royal sounding name, but of course at first I found a completely different one. it's because you searched for _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ E _ _ instead of _ _ _ _ _ _ E _ _ ! here is your _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ E _ _

I first searched _ _ _ _ _ _ E _ _ alright, with something royal in the name (like "mount real", for instance, "real" meaning "royal", or even "Royal peak", which worked too), but after a few tries that gave no results, I had to try other solutions... and decided to try royal titles and names, since the number of letters fitted. To this day I don't know why some of you decided to add an s to king in the first word, just to get the number of letters. That is the subject of this puzzle, really.

Ok, make sure you've read everything so far (very important), and if it's not enough, for those who are willing to give it another try, here is a clue: _ _ E E _ _ E _ _ And you know what, here is one more clue! A title and a nickname.
