Dorne and the location of the Greenblood

The Greenblood is one of the principal rivers of Dorne. At its mouth lies Planky Town. It takes its named from the murky green waters that are slow-moving and shallow. The Vaith river feeds into the Greenblood.[1]

Orphans of the Greenblood

The Orphans of the Greenblood are the remnants of the Rhoynar who came to Dorne. They pole up and down the Greenblood, living on their boats and working from their boats. They are the descendants of those Rhoynar who arrived in Dorne but refused to give up their old ways. From the burned carcasses of the ships they used to cross the narrow sea they built their smaller boats and now live on the Greenblood.[2]

Their boats have little draft and are painted and carved. They have low roofs and wide beams.[3]
