Seven Rivers

Description

Seven Rivers lies at the center of Ar Agyr's bread basket. The land undulates slightly, and vegetation tends to spring vibrantly from the riverbanks and swamps. The region is criss-crossed with seven small rivers which prove a mixed blessing to the region's farmers. Frequent floods inundate the fields,  but deposit deep layers of soil and provide plentiful water for irrigation. The local peasantry traverse the threading rivers via bridges only two-logs wide, which often send the imbalanced outsider careening into the water. Many farm barley, potatoes, and other hardy legumes that can grow late into the fall and store well through winter. The bulk of the peasants live either in solitude on their farms or in small agrarian villages scattered about the delta and upper plains.

There are only a few things of note in this rustic region:

Udara Manor
An icon of Melhed's rule over the people, this manor is the traditional seat of the Countess of Seven Rivers. It is located at the confluence of the Udi and Kadara rivers. It is not a large manor, and tends to be quite cold, though it's location is framed most ideally by the running waters, sprawling gardens, and arboreal walkways. Under a massive dead tree hanging precariously over a bend in the Udi river is a haunting shrine to Aruman the Conqueror.

Grotto of Omar
A vast complex of caverns forbidden to commoners and the unworthy, it is protected by the Tandaros Sentinels. The caverns were formed by the Buli river thousands of years ago, which continues to run from the upper plains, through the innermost chamber of the Grotto of Omar, and out to sea.
