The name Salis comes from the Akae-Sicinian word for spit, as the old myths held that the Salis was a river of saliva from a sleeping giant. Today the River plays an important part in Sicinia's trade, as many of its cities rely upon it as a transport for their food and resources. It was once the border between Akaeia and Sicinia, but became entirely part of Sicinia during the Three Day's War.
