Editing Ramsu (section)

== The Levens Prohibition ==
Ramsu cannot be flown over '''[[Levens]]'''. The '''[[Yarvet|yarvets]]''' of that sphere detect them almost immediately and rise in aligned flocks to tear them apart in the air, devouring the innards and letting the carcass fall. Few riders survive.

No scholar has explained it. Since the yarvets and the ramsu evolved on separate spheres and never shared a sky, no inherited rivalry can account for it; the reaction appears to be an accident of two ecologies meeting. Some hold it territorial, others that the birds simply relish the flesh.

The consequence is strategic. When the [[House Rawkin|Rawkin]] kings lost the gate nexus beneath [[Bræcwyn Hold]] and the [[Aether Thrones]] stood empty, the ramsu-riders were the only force in the River capable of reaching them by air — and could not. The thrones remained unreclaimed for generations as a direct result.
