Rhoyne

Jump to: navigation, search

The River Rhoyne is one of the main rivers of the eastern continent, Essos. It originates from the conjunction of two of its tributaries, the Upper Rhoyne and the Little Rhoyne, southeast of the ruins of Ghoyan Drohe. Its course runs southeast to turn due south after Dagger Lake. It gains in width considerably as it gets fed by more tributaries, such as the Qhoyne, Noyne, Lhorulu and the Selhoru. A giant delta forms at its mouth, upon which Volantis sits.[1]

Its banks is the homeland of the Rhoynar, a river-faring people. Among them the river holds a god-like status, in their faith it is called Mother Rhoyne.[2]

It is known for its river pirates, who hide on and around the many islands of Dagger Lake.[3]
