The Sydligdnar ("South Dnar River") reaches across northeastern Nova Vaasa. Its tributaries are the Dnar River and the Trished River both from the Mountains of Misery of Darkon, the Vaughn Dnar River from Lake Kronov in Tepest, and the Borchava River and the Little Borchava River both from the nothingness of the Shadow Rift, which is to say that they have their phantom headwaters in the vanished land of Markovia. The Vaughn Dnar River is joined by the Trished River just east of Liara and bends to the southeast. The Borchava River is joined by the Little Borchava River well south of Liara and bends to the northeast. The Vaughn Dnar River is joined by the Borchava River halfway between Liara and Kantora and continues east by southeast, passing just north of Kantora, and merges there with the Dnar River, becoming the Sydligdnar'. The Sydligdnar' drains into the Nocturnal Sea just north of Egertus beside Guldstrand Beach via the Katsmund Canyon. The Sydligdnar and the Dnar are the southern and western limit respectively of the Ehrendton.
The Sydligdnar is navigable, although with difficulty in both directions owing to its current, by small ships between the docks at Kantora and the sea, with cargos being transferred to and from larger vessels at the docks of Guldstrand Beach. The Sydligdnar is too deep to be forded. Bridges consistent with small ships pose an engineering problem, but none are mentioned, so ferry service for crossing at its mouth and at Kantora would make sense. A ferry service is known to exist between the docks at Kantora and those at Guldstrand Beach. On the opposite side of the river mouth lies Skibbygger Beach. The flourishing Vaasi shipbuilding business is centred there, presumably supplied with timber from Tepest via the Vaughn Dar and the Sydligdnar.
The Sydligdnar is a critical source of water for crops, humans, and domestic animals. But what starts outside of Kantora as a solid band of farmland stretching back from the banks of the river, becomes a broken band, and finally almost no band at all before reaching Egertus. For as the Sydligdnar sinks into the Katsmund Canyon access to its waters in useful quantities becomes ever more difficult.
