North of the Glanuf River lie the [[Baddaen Hills]], the Ardor Forest and Lake Felm. South of it the country is hillier, more forested and wilder: lake country along the Allso in the west, farmland around [[Urbala]] and Lakes Esbing, Bred and Esga in the center, and the [[Enis Hills]] in the southeast. The large forests include the Crosbar, Rhyche, Mona and Mineineo forests.
