- While to the east and west the Indoril cut down forests to provide space for Morrowind's economy to grow, in Lan Orethan the ash-ravaged woods were not only kept, but revived and flourished with more life than before; a vast garden for the Dunmer, to provide them with a glimpse of utopia to follow. The Indoril there were themselves enraptured by their creation, but surrounded by their success, are thought by many to have lost sight of the wellbeing of Morrowind as a whole, focused only on tending to their immediate surroundings. This forested region straddles the lower Orethan river and contains the Indoril villages of Bosmora and Dreynim Spa, as well as manors of many important Indoril families. — Tamriel Rebuilt

Lan Orethan is a region in the Mournhold District of Morrowind. It is a lush lowland forest valley, set on the banks of the serene Lan Orethan river.
Its largest settlement is Bosmora. Lan Orethan borders Alt Orethan to the west, the Deshaan Plains and Mudflats to the south, Nedothril to the east, and the Mephalan Vales to the north.
About a third of the region, the area south of Bosmora, remains unreleased. However, much of it is water.
