Once tamed rivers now running free.

The Riverways is an area in Act 2. This area has a waypoint and is connected to The Forest Encampment, The Western Forest, and The Wetlands.

A stone road leads from the Forest Encampment in the north-east corner to the Western Forest in the south-west. Bridges cross over rivers, but if a bridge is destroyed you must find another crossing. The exit to the Wetlands is marked by a break in the road and two pillars, which can easily be found near the waypoint.

This area can contain a Breach located inside of a bandit camp.
