    Lakes generally can have many inlets but usually only one outlet (there are exceptions to this but they are usually non-natural and temporary). The Northern river probably wouldn't split like it does and flow down to the southern river through the lake. I can fix that If you'd like. I just left it alone as is my custom. I went back and started this over as I wasn't at all happy with the forests. I've changed them and started to add the locations around the island.

    Well sir, thats why I came to the experts. If you see rivers that dont look like they would behave like real rivers, then by all means make it believable! You wield the paint brush!
    The river that flows from the castle past the tower to the west is very important. The split that leads southeast to the larger lake is not important.

    I do like the forests as well, and I really like the location icons you used.
