Sly-Var has a population of 4,500 and sits on the Ensommark ("Lonely Plain") of Hazlan. The Saniset River, flowing from west to east, and the Genspejle ("Mirror River"), flowing from north to south, meet in Sly-Var. Their cooling waters somewhat counter the heat and dust of the surrounding plain.
The Saniset River is navigable from the Nocturnal Sea to Sly-Var. Craft are very likely smaller than small ships however. Otherwise chuul, when they rear their ugly selves, wouldn't be able to make a mess of transport on the river. Upriver navigation, across much of the Ensommark, via the Saniset and via the Genspejle, perhaps in a smaller vessel as the water is split between two rivers, would make sense. Still the rivers would likely be sufficiently deep to prohibit fording. A ferry would join the town to the south shore.
The Iron Road crosses Genspejle in Sly-Var. There must be a bridge or a ferry that can handle wagons. If a bridge, river traffic between the Genspejle and the Saniset could be harmed unless it is a draw bridge.
