The geography of Ur

A first picture of the geography of Ur(r) would be something like this:
 Geography of Ur<nowiki>(r)</nowiki>
Andre, please adjust the map to reflect our discussions.

The climate of the region is a temperate continental one. The mountains do not have a permanent ice cover. Sometimes a weather front becomes stationary in the mountains meaning that it rains for longer periods. The big and small river are snow rivers. Hence, flooding in the poorer quarters of Ur(r) may happen from time to time. The city of Ur(r) is at about 300 meters above average sea level.

Yendor is located to the west of Ur(r) at about 2 weeks travel. This means that the invasion is coming from the north west.

We have decided that there are actually two larger peaks among the mountains of the Longbeards namely the Silver Mountain (because the Longbeards delve mithril under it) and the other is called Mount Emerald, where they can mine precious gems. Together they are known as The Metal Mountains or by their gnomish knickname, The Breasts. This is not a name to use within earshot of the Longbeards. The volcano has been moved to the mountains of the gnomes. Its gnomish name reflects its purpose: Mount Central Heating.
