Slayne
el Slayne
The Slayne is a river in the Stormlands that runs along the eastern edge of the Red Mountains, near Cape Wrath, with Stonehelm standing on its bank.
Its waters were the setting for more than one victory won by the kings of House Durrandon, which earned it a reputation as a river marked by war.

What we are not sure about
PositionWe worked it out
The position was inferred from the label on the base map rather than from a symbol of its own: it marks the area, not the point.
Spanish nameWe worked it out
The Spanish name is the atlas’s own reviewed translation, not the one in the published Gigamesh edition, which does not fix it.
