The Great Five-Tail River, sometimes referred to as the Great River, is a vast, murky, vein-like river stretching from the desert to an unnamed delta.
According to the history scrolls, the area is the most disputed piece of territory in all of Pyrrhia, as the SandWings and the SkyWings have fought over the land around the river for centuries. However, the area currently remains peaceful, as Queen Ruby and Queen Thorn are at peace.[1]
Over the course of the War of SandWing Succession, small towns on either side merged together to form the single town of Possibility.
