Gyrmâlkin

The Gyrmalkin refers to the massive territory surrounded by all three regions of the Rift, and is considered sacred lands where the gods roost. It's land was claimed by Gyr, the first bird of prey, and the territory was named after him. The lands were given to the Skelsían region for protection against foes, but was then given to the Skelrí after the Emjir tribe betrayed the Spirit Tree. The souls of dead falcons and hawks roost there with their gods, and the two species are expected to coexist in harmony, though their souls are invisible to the living.
