Vaere Bange Road
The Vaere Bange Road is a long, lonely, bandit-ridden road in Nova Vaasa. It joins Arbora and Bergovitsa. In Bergovitsa it connects with the Prince's Road to Kantora and the Old Svalich Road leading over the Balinoks and to the lands of the West. The Iron Road from Sly-Var and Toyalis in Hazlan connects to the Vaere Bange Road just above the Saniset River. Within Nova Vaasa the Iron Road is little more than a wagon trail. South of Bergovitsa the Vaere Bange Road draws near the Ivlis River for a ways and crosses the Ulvand River. Seasonally the Ulvand might be forded, but something better would be wanted for wagons in anycase. A stone bridge would be ideal as it could not easily be sabotaged. Farmland stretches back from the banks of the Ivlis and the Ulvand. Three quarters of the way to Arbora the road crosses the Saniset River not far from the river's mouth. Whereas the Sydligdnar and the Ivlis River are each given a canyon, none is mentioned for the Saniset. A gently sloped river valley that has grown very wide by this point may be assumed then. The farmland would stretch back from the banks of the river. The Saniset, which is navigable from the sea to Sly-Var and beyond, would be too deep to ford and there would be a ferry capable of taking wagons. In between the rivers lies the Tordenmark ("Thundering Plain") where the Vaere Bange Road traverses mile upon mile of land that is filled with little more than grass, snakes, herds of wild horses, bandits, and plains cats.
