Xanges River

This tributary river branches off from the wider Xircos River toward the eastern edge of the Stoneheart Mountains. The shallow waterway sees little traffic or usage as its banks are sparsely populated. The few small fishing villages along the river live off the plentiful trout and bass swimming in the murky water as well as farming the fertile soil alongside it. Humans make up the majority of these settlements’ residents. They welcome strangers into their homes, which sharply contrasts with their staunch territorial outlook toward their neighbors. Bitter, longstanding family feuds are common throughout the area, with the most famous being the Browne-Ravene conflict that has raged on for three centuries. No one can accurately remember how or why it started, though some claim the dispute erupted over something as trivial as a prized fishing hole. Despite the foggy memories surrounding the feud’s origins, both sides distinctly recall the number 279 — the number of lives lost on both sides to the constantly simmering grudge.
