The Black Isle is pretty much standard to all Malkioni being described in the Glorantha: Intro p239. The Black Mountain is part of Pelandan mythology and mentioned in the Entekosiad p36 and in p67.

>I did not know about an Orlanthi Sword Bridge.

There is a Bridge which bridges the River of Swords in KoS p68. I thought that is what you were referring to.
