Umryg was an isolated island kingdom ruled by long-lived Primogenitrix Timmel Orosenn. Its thaumaturgs were organised in a group called the Circlet of Umryg and led by Circlet Master T'enet. The kingdom also maintained a standing army. The interior of the island featured mountains and a valley of burial caverns interspersed with ancient earthworks. Despite being an island, Umryg was "no sea-faring state." The Primogenitrix's ship Supplicant was slow and ungainly, supernaturally tall, top heavy, and likely run by magical means. Umryg's location in the Malazan world has not been revealed.
