Nevduin

The Nevedui (S. "Seventh River") was one of the many mountain streams of Andrast, which emptied into the Bay of Belfalas only forty miles east of the very tip of Ras Morthil. The Nevedui was not navigable, but widened at its mouth enough to allow ships to use it as a temporary haven. Its distinction arose from the fact that its course was followed by a trail that led to the only usable pass over the mountains of Andrast between the Cirith Aralanthir and Ras Morthil itself. A subsidiary fortification of Tharagrondost was built at the mouth of the stream in T.A. 1720. To this was added a manorial estate on the opposite bank in T.A. 2050,
