Hjaalmarch

Hjaalmarch is one of the nine Holds of Skyrim. Its capital is Morthal. It is one of the smallest Holds. The Hjaal River runs through a large portion of this Hold. Their coat of arms is of a triskele.
==Description==
Hjaalmarch is located in northern Skyrim, at the mouth of the Karth River. The capital, Morthal, lies near the center of the hold. The hold borders Haafingar, separated by the Karth River to the northwest, The Reach to the west, Whiterun to the south and The Pale to the east. Hjaalmarch's most distinct terrain are its swamps and marshes, but it also has snow-covered forests, mountains, and rocky plains, making it arguably the most geographically diverse of Skyrim's holds.
Sitting on the southern edge of the Drajkmyr Marsh, dry ground can be hard to come by in Morthal. The town is often shrouded in a thick fog, and ominous twisted trees grow in the surrounding marsh, which is known to contain vampires. Due to this, Morthal is a foreboding place for travelers, many of whom choose to steer clear of the place altogether.
Morthal is a town shrouded in mystery. Its people are reclusive and wary of newcomers, and only a single lumber camp supports its weak economy. The Jarl is among the most relaxed in Skyrim when it comes to taxation, but Hjaalmarch is also the poorest of the nine holds. Although the hold is still part of the Empire, the Jarl is unapologetically vague in her enthusiasm for the Imperial Legate stationed in her dwelling. A number of the people in the town are concerned about the prospect of war, since war brings outsiders, and outsiders are not a welcome sight in Morthal. Most would prefer the conflict be kept outside their home, leaving them free to pursue their own interests.
