The Raging River is a river in daventry making up a portion of the River Fools. Graham found some pebbles on a beach near a bend in the river.

Almost two decades later, following earthquakes, droughts, and other disasters that affected daventry, the Raging River had dried up. Rumplestiltskin built a rickety shack across the dry river bed. Between Daventry and the former Gnome Isle proper.[1]

Some who vacation in Daventry, sometimes are known to spend their time suntanning on the castle wall, or swimming in the Raging River![2] The latter is not recommended as many people have lost their lives in its dangerous currents.

Behind the scenes

The Raging River appears specifically the name a portion of river within KQ1AGI. In KQ1SCI the river's name is not mentioned, although it is referred to as being a raging river, a rough river, among other descriptions. The KQ2 Hintbook calls another section where pebbles were found in the Raging River, the 'Dangerous River'.

In the map in the official KQ1 Hintbook, the section known as the raging river passes from the screen with the mushroom, south to the "Dangerous River" section, east to the 'Boulder in Raging River', and south to the 'Bend in Raging River'.

In the original KQ1 on the screen with the mushroom on the island, it is possible to cross the river, by walking across the lower edge of the screen (if Graham's boots are just off the edge of the screen). This is an alternative way to cross over to the island without catching a ride on the condor (but you miss points).

The Raging River is mentioned in Hoyle I, see Hoyle I quotes.
