Introduction:
'''Lake Donal''' is a large lake in the interior of [[Ivaiê]], in the [[Western Lowlands]] of [[Balúrail]]. It covers 249 mi² (645 km²) and lies directly beside the [[Donal Hills]]. The lake is fed by rain and by small streams running down from the hills, and it is the source of the [[Gal River]], which reaches the sea at [[Ivaiê Bay]]. No settlement stands on its shores; the nearest is the small town of [[Ivesiz]], about 10 miles (16 km) away.

Geology:
Ecology:
The lake's shores are rocky and wooded, with stands of [[Balúrail Pine]] and [[Balúrail Spruce]], and small wooded islands are scattered across its open water. Winters are long and cold, and the lake freezes over in the coldest part of the year.
Historical Significance:
The country around Lake Donal was Mifajene land before the arrival of the [[Tuzquão]]. It passed to the [[League of Balúrail]] in the First Mifajene War, c. 320–342 ME, when the League took the southern and coastal lowlands, including most of Ivaiê. Ivesiz, the nearest Tuzquão settlement, was founded in 510 ME.
Cultural Significance:
Settlements:
There are no settlements on the shores of Lake Donal. The nearest is [[Ivesiz]], a small town about 10 miles (16 km) from the lake.
