Halgrim
The city of Halgrim is the second largest settlement in the Lands of the Linnorm Kings; only Kalsgard is bigger. Located on the northwestern shore of Battlewall, one of the largest islands in the Ironbound Archipelago, Halgrim was founded by King Igarven in 2655 AR. Today, it is ruled by the Linnorm King White Estrid from her palace. The Rustflow River flows out to the sea through Halgrim and, famously, seven bridges cross the river within the city. The city's defences are greatly enhanced by the constant presence of White Astrid's linnorm thrall, Boiltongue.
