No evidence remains that the Trident was known to the [[Nokimi Empire#Explorations|ancient seafarers of the Nokimi Empire]], but in light of the fact that their travels to the Seligonian coast are generally presumed to have taken them along the Horn of Nokim north and west to the [[Sandôr|Bay of Sandôr]], it is likely they knew of the area and passed it often, potentially even to enter Avalia to the east. The [[Armundians]] knew of a place they called '''Cevitti''', ostensibly a term borrowed from the [['Iru Ni'i]] who themselves are likely to have learnt it from the Nokimi. Cevitti was said to lie to the east, where the earth broke open and gave way to the untamed open sea. | No evidence remains that the Trident was known to the [[Nokimi Empire#Explorations|ancient seafarers of the Nokimi Empire]], but in light of the fact that their travels to the Seligonian coast are generally presumed to have taken them along the Horn of Nokim north and west to the [[Sandôr|Bay of Sandôr]], it is likely they knew of the area and passed it often, potentially even to enter Avalia to the east.

Later, the capes were known as the hazardous threshold to the east and the utmost boundary of the [[Iilish Empire]]'s conquests. Both [[Olgish Peoples|Olgish]] and [[Aribelians|Aribelian] ships will still avoid a voyage past it. [[Iiles|Iilish]] ships are known to traverse the passage but dread it; only [[Kalparians|Kalparian]] and [[Feldin|Feldic]] ships readily circumnavigate the eastern coast of Seligon to reach Nelkon and the [[Arachans]]. | Later, the capes were known as the hazardous threshold to the east and the utmost boundary of the [[Iilish Empire]]'s conquests.
