The Rhine archipelago is situated quite far north. Two months of every year, Napen and Obern, the islands are completely ice-locked (the Freeze sometimes starts during Murh and occasionally lasts into Pim). It is during the Freeze that the islands of Northpoint and Southport come into their own. The two islands provide clear docking area for sea going vessals to load and unload their cargos. This cargo is transported to the ice-skimmers that provide tha main means of inter-island transport during the Freeze. Despite the bitter cold of Rhine winters, many travellers visit during this time of year to participate in Centralian holidays and watch the skimmer races. | The Rhine archipelago is situated quite far north.

The predominant language of Rhine seems to be Ferric. In most cities Ferric may be the only language spoken. On Centralia island it is becoming increasingly likely to run into someone who speaks Paroli. The commonness of Paroli is caused by the power of the southern trading companies and by the influx of refugees from seige of Karfelon. | The predominant language of Rhine seems to be Ferric.
