Aorean River

The Aorean River is the primary artery flowing through the center of the territory of the Iron Coalition. The river flows into the South Harbinger Sea via the Fleuve Bastogne, and is the longest flowing river in the Primus Territory. The lower leg of the Aorean river is known as the Skelic River. Both the Skelic River and the Fleuve Bastogne form a natural boundary that defines the western edge of the Synovian Desert. The name "Aorean" is a modern cognate of the old Havanite "Aeghallaivw", which is the name of the ancient formless goddess of water and life. 
In the early years of Havanite expansion it served as a critical hub of economic and agricultural activity, with numerous goods and supplies being transported across its waters to Havanite settlements. A few of these settlements eventually developed into the modern-day towns of Lexington, Broadchapel and Utzgrad. In Y894 the river was navigated and mapped by Havanite explorer and cartographer Thaddius Clegane during the 2nd Havanite expedition. The expedition attempted to prospect resources as well as open potential trade routes to foreign lands. Clegane was unfortunately killed 7 months into the expedition in the Battle of Synod Point after running into resistance from a force of marauding Raskolian Raiders led by Valknir Hardhead.
