| {{flag|Dolchland}}
| One of Rihan's most active volcanoes and most important tourist attractions. The Firefalls of Gath Gal'thong can be witnessed year-round where lava flows over the northern side of the volcano in a constant stream of magma. Some of the magma spreads out and cools at the base but most oozes back through cracks in the ground and deep into the planet, only to return to the surface through the crest of Karethvek.
| One of the most treacherous routes into the Kingdom of [[Dolchland]], the Ettiny Pass is unique as due to its shape and geography, it has been filled with thick fog constantly for all of recorded history. Largely considered too dangerous for armies to march through due to the risk of avalanches and ambushes, it has only ever seen small scale settlement and travel through it by those very familiar with its characteristics.

| The Valley lies to the north of the agricultural breadbasket of the Aihai and the capital, Dartha. Though there are some farms in the valley, much of the land is protected. This is either by the Praetor who by virtue of his office owns land in the region or the numerous tourist resorts that lie along the cliffsides on either side of the river far below. The sunsets in the Valley are some of the best in the world for their variable colors. Many a Rihannsu artist has painted landscapes of this geographic area, but none compare to the masterpiece by Raban Parthok.

These rocks are also interesting, as they appear to be deeply embedded into the hill and surrounding areas where they are found.
