Difference between revisions of "Brethan"

As one of the two eponymous rivers of Belkondíl, the 'Land by the Rivers', the Brethan prominently features in Olgish folklore and literature, albeit not as popularly as the longer and more accessible Cëlac. As one of the three primary rivers created by [[Awol]] (the others being Cëlac and Besokan), it is considered the remnant of [[Kána]]'s tears as they flowed into the ocean after the [[Olgish Mythology#Before Men|fall of the old world]]. After the division of Olgish clans into two major groups, the western groups, which settled in the less fertile region beyond the Olgish Highlands, is commonly named after this river, the [[Brethanian Olgs]], and their language, [[Brethanian language|Brethanian Olgish]].
