  Fyris river - Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
Originating from the Delta of the blue Nile, the Fyris river is widely regarded as the worst named river in Uppsala, having got its name from a nearby Moose cloning facility named Fyrishov.
Fyris river was first discovered in 1685 when a team of italian scientists were traveling the lands of Sweden to do research on its many semi-intelligent inhabitants known as Socialdemocrats.
Every year during the mating season thousands of Celts flock to the banks of the Fyris river to lay their eggs in its muddy depths and eat rocks, though the complete asbcense of the latter tends to kill the majority of them.

 Fyrisvellir - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fyrisvellir, Fyris Wolds or Fyrisvallarna was the marshy plain (vellir) south of Gamla Uppsala where travellers had to leave the ships and walk to the Temple at Uppsala and the hall of the Swedish king.
The small lakes Övre Föret, "the Upper Fyri", and Nedre Föret, "the Lower Fyri", are remains of this marsh and retain a modern form of Fyri (the -t suffix is the definite article, which lake names always take in Swedish).
In skaldic poetry gold was often referred to with the kenning the seed of the Fyris Wolds.

 Fyris Wolds - free-definition   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
Fyrisvellir, Fyris Wolds or Fyrisvallarna was the marshy field ouside of Gamla Uppsala where travellers had to leave the ships and walk to the Temple at Uppsala and the hall of the Swedish king.
The name is related to, or derived from, Old Norse Fyrva which meant to ebb and it referred to the partially inundated soggy plains that today are dry farmland.
Unfortunately, this renaming is sometimes erroneously cited as evidence in favour of the highly controversial Götaland theory by a small number of amateur historians from the province of Westrogothia.

Rather they Internet-swapped sound files for their debut, Fyris Swan, with Fiocco recording and sending via laptop from Sweden and Ikin from Australia.
Though Fyris Swan boasts the subtle clinks and loops that populate Four Tet's Rounds, Fiocco and Ikin's works are wandering, beatless entities that have no defined beginning or end.
The lawless aura of "Old City Crowd" seemingly defines Fyris Swan as a collection of shifting, darkened-room music.

So obssessed with it in fact, that the mere promise of it is usually enough to cause her to completely abandon her good sense, and undertake quests which even the most foolhardy would give pause to.
Having been raised first in Tyrinis, then later in ElHazir, Fyris has spent almost as much time on the water as she has on land, and consequently learned much of the art of fishing, as well as becoming quite the accomplished sailor.
Alas, it was not to be, for the girl soon grew bored with her training of how to become a proper lady, and would often sneak off with some of the less reputable characters in town in search of mischief.
