Nice to see he's still stealing Tolkien's names... that's literally just "Arnor" with a G shoved in the middle!
On a more geography-related note... my prototype map for the world of my novel has a few weird-flowing rivers, but the ones that flow inland aren't flowing into the hllls, they're flowing downward into a basin, and their path ends in an inland sea. If the Edda's flow were stated to still be going slowly, slowly downward from some highlands in "distant Alagaesia", that'd be fine... but if that's what you intended to show, Paolini, then you FAILED. Miserably.
