General
The Arinelle is a river in the Westlands, flowing from Maradon in Saldaea through Andor where it joins the Manetherendrelle. Tributaries include the Ivo, the Taren and the Haevin (TWoRJTWoT, Map, TEotW, Ch. 18). Much of the river is located in unclaimed land and from Maradon, to Whitebridge, there are no bridges and river boats provide the only means of crossing. There are no major cities along the river, though the remains of Shadar Logoth were on the west bank (TEotW, Ch. 18) until being destroyed when Rand cleansed the taint (WH, Ch. 35). In the unclaimed land north of Andor, two great sights lay on the river, the first is a set of carvings into high walls on either side, the second, the Tower of Ghenjei, which is visible from the river, about ten days from Whitebridge (TEotW, Ch. 24).
Quotes
The Arinelle ran between high bluffs that stretched for half a mile on either side. For that whole length the stone had been cut into figures, men and women a hundred feet tall, with crowns proclaiming them kings and queens. No two were alike in that royal procession, and long years separated the first from the last. Wind and rain had worn those at the north end smooth and almost featureless, with faces and details becoming more distinct as they went south (The Eye of the World, Chapter 24)
