Góak

Situated north and east of the Wômaw Reach, the easternmost arm of the Orocarni (Q. "Red Mountains"), Góak is a large, rugged peninsula. Thick hardwood forests occupy most of its rocky coasts, while swift, chilly rivers and extremely deep lakes dominate the inland areas along the mountain flanks. Ceer Góak, a great swamp surrounding the mouth of the Góak River (Wm. "Aceer Góak"), lies in the southeasternmost corner of this ancient Wômaw homeland.

Like the rest of the old "core-lands" of Wômawas Drûs-which includes Wôm Shryac, Cuivac Wômaw, and Móak -Góak is named for the tribe that first settled its cool but temperate hills. Their tribal center at Aalk Góak on Leer Góak still serves as one of the Wômaw's four capitals. Great hunters and fisherman, the Góakaw are the most revered Wômaw line.
