- Rathanna is liosanna.
There are two Lioses near the school. One is almost opposite the other. So they say the reason of this was that if they wanted help they would signal to the others and they would come to their aid.
There were three rings of earth around one of them. It was strong. There is a little wood around it, There is a little also around the other one. It was chieftans who lived in them.
