Nanlan River is the longest river in the Southern Yanfu State of the Eastern Emperor Realm, originating from Luo Hui Mountain in Central State, crossing the dense Twilight Forest, meandering from within Diancang Mountain Range, and finally joining the briny sea on the western coast of Southern Yanfu State.
Most of the merchant fleets trading in Southern Yanfu State do not like to navigate through the Nanlan River.
The reason is that it winds through the Diancang Mountain Range far too much, almost three times the distance than the almost straight trajectory of the Crooked Maiden River to the east.
However, due to the Qilin and Vermilion Bird Clans being in a hostile stance lately, several stretches of the Crooked Maiden River have been blocked off by the Qilin, forcing many merchant ships to detour through the Nanlan River to transport goods.
