The Ivlis River reaches west by north-west across central [[Nova Vaasa]], defining the southern limit of the [[Dommark]], skirting [[Bergovitsa]] to the north, turning west into [[Barovia]], cutting throught the [[Old Svalich Woods]], climbing the [[Balinoks]] in a valley eventually shared with the [[Old Svalich Road]], skirting the [[Village of Barovia]] to the north, mounting spectacularly the [[Tser Falls]], and eventually reaching [[Mount Ghakis]], its source. The tributaries of the Ivlis are the [[Ulvand River]] from the [[Howling Hills]], the eastern flanks of the [[Balinoks]], and [[Mount Sawtooth]], and the [[Volgis River]] from the [[Vaesen Foothills]] and the nothingness of the [[Shadow Rift]], which is to say that it has its phantom headwaters in the vanished land of [[Markovia]]. The Ivlis is joined from the north by the Volgis, very close to the Barovian frontier, just north of the Old Slavich Road. Subsequently, it is joined from the south by the Ulvand, a little south-east of Bergovitsa, along the [[Vaere Bange Road]]. It drains into the the [[Nocturnal Sea]] halfway between [[Arbora]] and [[Egertus]] via the [[Storrokke Canyon]]. Even its lower reaches are not really navigable, such is the narrowness of its confinement and the aberrence of its course. Additionally, its outlet to the sea is a maw of jagged stone teeth. The Ivlis is a critical source of water for crops, humans, domestic animals, and beasts. Many of the creatures dwelling in the southern [[Dommark]] would perish without it.

The Ivlis River reaches up across Nova Vaasa from Arbora in the south to Bergovitsa in central western Nova Vaasa, turns west into Barovia, climbs the Balinoks in a valley shared with the Old Svalich Road, skirts the Village of Barovia, mounts spectularly the Tser Falls, and eventually reaches Mount Ghakis, its source. The tributaries of the Ivlis are the Ulvand River from the eastern flanks of the Balinoks of south of the Old Svalich Road, and the Volgis River from the nothingness of the Shadow Rift, which is to say that it has its phantom headwaters in the vanished land of Markovia. The Ivlis is joined from the south by the Ulvand just within the the frontier of Nova Vaasa. It is subsequent joined from the north by the Volgis River.

The South Dnar drains into the Nocturnal Sea just north of Egertus at Guldstrand Beach via the Katsmund Canyon. The South Dnar is navigable, with difficulty owing to the swiftness of its current, by small ships between Kantora and the sea, with cargos being transferred to and from larger vessels at the beach.
