[QUOTE="Zerakon, post: 1078604, member: 12921"] More like I went to work. Good grief, can you be any more rude, Zogg? I suppose you could have added more rolly-eyes like you did on your previous post. :rolleyes: This is the second time that I've posted a question on these boards and encountered rude, brief, condescending answers, and it sure is disappointing; I guess I expected more from a "fun" board about gaming. (The last one FYI was [URL=http://enworld.cyberstreet.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=59696]this thread[/URL].) I'm glad my group of local gamers doesn't include a Zogg or a Mourn in it. Agreed. [B][/B] That would be ok; I'm not trying to invalidate the whole world or system because of one poorly-formed geographical formation. But I would be surprised and somewhat disappointed if there is no reason presented. A magical fantasy world is a perfect playground for playing around with funky geographical features. I'd be psyched if he presents some sort of cool, fun explanation for this geographical oddity. [B][/B] I'm not a geologist, so if I tried to get too technical, I'm sure I'd make a mistake and Zogg and others would jump all over me, but AFAIC it looks [i]really[/i] hard to believe. It seems super-unlikely that moving plates that presumably formed those mountains would have left the area in between them untouched so that that river is flowing downhill from the left of the mountain belt to the right side. Rivers just don't "cross" mountain belts like that. Anyway, I look forward to hearing if there is some magical or divine explanation when the book comes out. -- Zerakon the Game Mage [SIZE=1]edit: i'm bad at quoting multiple messages[/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
