River Duilwen

The fifth of Gelion’s six tributaries

The Seven Rivers of Ossir

One of the six rivers that flowed west through Ossiriand to meet Gelion. The Duilwen was the last-but-one of these to flow into the great south-flowing river; only the Adurant was further south. The name Duilwen means 'fresh river'.
