The Kanesh River (pronounced cah-KESH) is a river in the southern Viridian province of Herren. Its tributaries begin in the hilly interior roughly 50 miles from the coast before they merge and continue out to the Chaska Sea. The lands around the Kanesh River are relatively low in population. The largest settlement on its banks, and the only city, shares its name with the river, and is located near the source of the northernmost tributary. Around the river's mouth, meanwhile, reside the Sharrarde, a people who view the Kanesh to be closely tied to their goddess Tallali.
