Longhe River

The largest river in the land of Sin, the mighty Longhe is born high up in the falls and winds its way through the land. Many cities and villages large and small adorn the riverbanks where the land is most plentiful and population booms. It's said the entire country of Sin thrives off the Longhe River, but it was once a source of woes for the Sinese, due to catastrophic flooding during the rain season.

The heavy rain, falls and rapids of the high, wide spanning Shanshui Mountains are said to be the origin of the Longhe and the other mighty rivers of Sin.

Huzhao Wetlands

As one approaches the mouth of the Longhe River, they arrive upon the fertile lowlands of Huzhao, a region adorned by lakes, marshes and grasslands. This is the southern region of Sin, dominated by flat, wide spanning lowlands. Water gathers down here until rice paddies flood with plentiful water. Construction in Huzhao must accomodate for the rising and falling water levels, and people adapt just as well.
