In Antiterra

  • The river to Puerto Castor runs with rapids and strong water between trees, with small waterfalls.
  • Another river, or stretch, is 100 to 300 m wide by section (100 most probable), yet can be crossed on foot almost over the water, or with a one-minute detour. Near the wall the water flattens, with no outgoing current.
  • Itineraries mention a river in a combat zone and a large border river, Bravo or Colorado (the name is uncertain), carrying corpses from the previous battle. Encounters and interceptions hinder travel; a medium dryness condition is noted, undated.
  • A company crossed it twice, a camp stood near it, and an entrance to some place opens onto its waters. In one zone it is called the Hudson.
  • Which river is which (Puerto Castor, border, Hudson, wall) is not distinguished.

In Vala

  • Unnamed. Venous in color, black, laden with silt from the north, with swampy ground on its banks.
  • The current is strongest in the center; boats going upstream hug the side. One section spans five or six miles; its bends can hide other boats.
  • At night it is said to allow fast travel to different destinations; this is not explained.
  • At the bridge the water is noisy and runs harder, only about fifty centimeters deep (half a standing person’s height). A steep ford upstream or downstream can be crossed on foot.
  • Where it rises, what riverside people call it, and what the silt carries are not recorded.
