[WIP] Aetherworld Map: Water flows up mountains too, right? Help with Rivers.

[Gamerprinter]

Ramah, caught them already, but notice the tag under my name "river police" - pull over, let's see your license and registration.

Rivers start from a spring, lake, snow cap melt, glacial melt - some inland source. Rivers flow downhill. Sometimes rivers merge with another river, sometimes there are islands within a river, but rivers never split downstream. Rivers end at the sea, or some other body of water that eventually reaches the sea (not always).

You can have a river that starts inland and ends in a lake inland, however rivers never connect to the sea in two different places. River deltas are an exception to that rule, but that is the cause of very flat, slow muddy parts of the river, where mud deposits change the channel of a river forming multiple channels to the sea.

Rivers are the most regularly mauled geographic feature by amateur cartographers. Fix your rivers.

You also have a lake in the southeastern part of the map, that has three or so rivers exiting the lake and going to the sea - that can never happen either. Only a single river should leave the lake and reach the sea.
