Malaz River

The North and South Malaz Rivers were long east-west rivers that travelled roughly in parallel across northern Malaz Island. Both rivers had their source in the Firstsight Mountains and crossed the Flint Plain before joining at Malaz City. The combined river split again into a main and lesser channel near Raven Hill Park and emptied into Malaz Bay at two locations.
The portion of the river that ran through Malaz City was a turgid stream of sewage bounded on either side by rotted brick retaining walls.The Bonehunters, Chapter 23, US SFBC p.947
==In The Bonehunters==
On the night that Adjunct Tavore Paran arrived in Malaz City with her 14th Army to meet with Empress Laseen, several members of the Bonehunters used the river channels to safely travel the city. Bottle was forced to climb down into the river beneath North Riverwalk on his way to Agayla's Shop to avoid the Mockra sorcery stirring the citizens to violence. The channel was characterised by filthy mud and buzzing insects.The Bonehunters, Chapter 23, US SFBC p.887
Kalam Mekhar sent Tavore and T'amber down the southern channel from Admiral Bridge to the harbour. The two managed to avoid encountering anyone while Kalam led their Claw pursuers on a chase through the Mouse Quarter.The Bonehunters, Chapter 23, US SFBC p.947-948
