Phlegethon River
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Phlegethon River is a river on the planet Armageddon that flows to the west of Hive Death Mire.[1]
The river is practically black from industrial pollution. A motorway bridge spans the Phlegethon near Death Mire.[1]
Trivia
Many of the features of Armageddon are named for dark figures or places associated with either the end of the world or the afterlife in various mythologies. In this case, the Phlegethon was a burning river that flowed through the Underworld in Ancient Greek mythology.
