The '''Sea of Runion''' (Olg. 'the grand blue') is the sea to the west and northwest of [[Elondor]] and north of the western parts of [[Nokim]]. It is known for its rough and cold waters and its violent storms caused by the westerlies, which, especially in contrast with the warm and more easily navigable [[Timesthe]], are manifested in its epithet, the '''Wrathful Sea'''. | The '''Sea of Runion''' (Olg.

The Runian shores of Elondor stretch along the west of [[Belkondíl]], the [[Hajalad]], the coast of [[Arsapárin]], and the [[Bight of Aribel]], and include the [[Kalparian Sea]]. Shared among all these coasts is a predominance of cliffs and otherwise inaccessible shores, leading to the relatively small number of larger harbour cities on the Runion, the majority of which are located in the [[Hajalad|Noridian Bight]] and the Kalparian Sea. The most important ports are [[Dejnab]] in Belkondíl, [[Bernab]] and [[Antarea]] in the Hajalad, [[Ealtu]] and [[Ianna]] in the [[Kalparians|Kalparian domain]], and [[Ennad]], [[Pelúri]], and [[Unrír]] in [[Aribel]]. Two major archipelagos bend along the Runian coast, the [[Mairn]] and the [[Norides]], while its largest island is the solitary [[Nerrok]] off the northern coast of Aribel. | The Runian shores of Elondor stretch along the west of [[Belkondíl]], the [[Hajalad]], the coast of [[Arsapárin]], and the [[Bight of Aribel]], and include the [[Kalparian Sea]].
