Quote
| - She loved the rooftops late at night, especially when the full moon transformed them as it did now into a wild, mountainous country quite distinct from the world below. Here the wind hunted freely among the gutters and chimney pots, coursing down the sweep of a thatched roof, whistling to itself among the gables. Bits of straw were in the air. Tiles lost their grip and slid, clattering, into the void. A solitary Cloudie crouched on the opposite eave like a lesser gargoyle, fishing for some tidbit below with a grapnel […] The streets below glowed with light, with all the pageantry of the late night city. Not one in all that bustling crowd looked up; not one had ever seen the wild, lonely land above, the Kingdom of the Clouds where moon shadows raced.

abstract
| - The Cloud Kingdom in Tai-tastigon encompasses the rooftops of the city. The Cloud King rules there, and only citizens of the Kingdom (Cloudies) are welcome. Cloudies may be born on the rooftops and many never ever touch the ground in their entire lives. Cloudies are known to push non-citizens who are not guests from the roof, possibly to their deaths. Jame is granted the freedom of the skies by the Cloud King on request of Prince Dandello, his nephew, who tries to push Jame from the roof but is almost pulled down with her. He says that since Jame won't let him push her off, nobody else shall have the pleasure. After this, Jame is a frequent visitor to the Kingdom, including an episode where she acquires a pair of the Cloud King's britches when Scramp dares her to. Cloudies call others "groundlings". It's never quite a stated that Cloudies are or are not a differante species than groundlings.
