Colon

The River Colon is a river in Hutoriwhich spans a considerable portion of Eastern Kenai. It is one of the four Great Rivers of Hutori (the others being Yurondi, Delium and Agathar, rivers widely recognised as being some of the hardest to sail in the world.

The River Colon begins in Eastern Kenai, just north of Farbanti. On a clear day one can see the mouth of the River Colon from Bracken Hill in Farbanti. The total length of the River Colon is 289 miles, making it the second longest river in Hutori. It is said to be the most dangerous river to sail in the whole of the Northern Hemisphere.

The Mashacara people treated the River Colon as sacred, believing it to be the birthplace of their god, Quartzparni. When Sir John Hutori's men landed in 1367 it was oneof the first places to be seized, to emphasise the new government.

It is famous for being the site of a battle between the Mashacara and the early Hutorians. Five years after the Hutorians had seized it, in 1372, 50,000 Mashacara warriors, a considerable portion of the entire warrior population attacked a 431 strong Hutorian base there. The Hutorians held out for four days, killing 7805 warriors (based on burial figures)in the process. Eventually, midway through the fourth night, the last Hutorian was killed. Sir John Hutori's men regained the river just two months before John's death, in 1373.

In 2211 61 people died on a river cruise boat as the dangerous current capsised the boat, making it the largest single loss of life in any of the four Great Rivers of Hutori.
