Hjaam
Hjaam is the southern and western part of Orrs in northwestern Túlmikkía. It's bordered by Aam to the north, Vagalkan to the east, the Deþren Mountains to the south, Galafam Sea to the west and the Isin Isthmus to the northwest.
The Orrólans know it as The Pale Land in contrast with the red cliffs of Aam, The Dark Land to the north. The people inhabiting Hjaam are mostly nomadic goatherds and hunters, the former being more common to the north while the latter are found further inland, including the þalgans1 in the deep desert, last remnants of the people who inhabited Orrs before the orrólans settled there.
