The Garmurud River (pronounced GAR-murr-ood) is a river that flows through Laurentia, beginning in the Ialgrike Peaks before eventually flowing into Lake Aster. While a number of shallow seasonal rivers flow through Laurentia, the Garmurud River remains year round, fed by magical springs that prevent the water from freezing no matter the time of year. Though this effect usually dissipates by the time the water reaches Lake Aster, the river nonetheless remains important to the tribes of Laurentia, as they can use it for transport year-round.
