The River Ewynn is one of the largest rivers in the world, and it is the largest river in length, discharge and basin area in Eastern Alaxia. It is an international river, offering vital economic and transportation opportunities to Koresa, Empherias, Grensalbourg, and Palakkinen. Several major cities, including Wynnoa and Querença, rely on the river for their existence. The Ewynn experiences a significant melt season, in which the river can flood its banks severely. The melt season in question varies year to year, with some seasons experiencing more than 200,000 m3/s of flow leaving the river. The river typically peaks around the 2nd week of November, and its lowest flow commences around mid-late July.

Rowing[edit | edit source]

Alto Onortei, a Koresan man, once rowed from the source of the Ewynn to the end in Querença, declaring the world record for the longest time rowing in East Alaxia. He dedicated this accomplishment to Sofia Hopkins, Baroness of Bazir.

In Popular Culture[edit | edit source]

The Ewynn is often a subject of various prominent painters in Koresa and Empherias.
