Overview

Riverhaven, or simply "Haven", is one of the principal cities of the province of Therengia. It stands on the northern banks of the Faldesu River, very near the border between Therengia and Zoluren.

Though Therenborough is the capital of Therengia, Riverhaven is probably the province's largest city. It is the seat of Therengian commercial power, and appropriately, is managed by a Trader, Lord Mayor Bressail. Lucrative but foul-smelling salt yards line the southern end of the city. The rest of the town is scattered with smaller shops and other commercial buildings.

The city is largely dominated by Humans, as is Therengia as a whole. A Halfling quarter on the west side of town, however, is one of the more substantial clusters of Halfling homes and businesses to be found anywhere in Elanthia.

Empaths in Riverhaven have the curious habit of taking patients on the street outside of the town's healing hall, rather than inside the building. The heavily-frequented spot at which they congregate is nicknamed "the crate" because of a waste disposal crate nearby.

Riverhaven is home to at least one Guildleader of every guild in Elanthia. It is also the only place in DragonRealms other than The Crossing in which the
