Foyada Esannudan

Foyada Esannudan is one of the several foyadas of Vvardenfell, the island district of Morrowind. The volcanic ravines (or "fire-rivers") are valleys formed by lava flows from Red Mountain, functioning as drainage basins for lava when the volcano is active, or alternatively forming pathways to travel on when dormant and devoid of lava.[1][2][3]

The foyada branches off from Foyada Mamaea close to the caldera of Red Mountain and travels south through the Ashlands.[4] Aryon Ancestral Tomb is found at the end, and Dunirai Caverns is found between Foyada Esannudan and Foyada Ashur-Dan.[5][6] Foyada Esannudan was filled with lava at the time of the Imperial Simulacrum.[7] The foyada had dried up by the time of the Blight in 3E 427, and though the Ghostgate went through it, House Dagoth set up operations within Sharapli on the exterior.[8]
