Description

The River Dessarin—also called the Sword and the Road to the North—is one of the great rivers of the Savage Frontier, flowing from the highland cascades of the Lost Peaks all the way to the Sea of Swords, just south of Waterdeep. Cold, deep, and wide, the Dessarin has long served as a natural artery of commerce, culture, and conflict. Its swift current carries barges and boats from Yartar and Bargewright Inn down through the heart of the Dessarin Valley, connecting with major tributaries such as the Rauvin, Surbrin, and Laughingflow. The river passes through contested frontierlands, verdant farmlands, and ancient ruins alike. Numerous settlements—some thriving, others long fallen—dot its banks. The Dessarin Valley is steeped in history: from Netherese remnants to Dwarven strongholds and elemental cults. Its waters are famed for silver shalass fish, and its fords and bridges serve as strategic chokepoints in times of war. It remains one of the North’s most vital and storied rivers.

Appearance

The river gleams blue-gray with frothy rapids, mist rising in narrow gorges and forest fringes. Towering trees line the east bank, while the west opens to windblown plains. Ancient stone bridges and cliffside ruins dot the landscape, with river barges and wildlife like herons and silver shalass fish present.
