The island nation of Jhess runs the eastern coast of Alaran Bant.[1][2]
Jhessians are famous navigators and have the finest navy in Bant.[3] Jhess is under constant siege from Valeron on the mainland. Jhess’s sleek ships and highly skilled marines dominate the sea and beaches, but Valeron’s hearty cavalry rule the inland battlefields.[1] Riders traverse the coastline, always on the lookout for sails or aven. In turn, the Jhessian navy makes successful raids on Valeron's coastal towns thanks to their spies planted during peacetime.
Jhess is seen by many in Bant as hedonistic.[1] A far greater portion of the population is likely to either be Sigiled or Sighted than in other nations, and Jhess has the largest number of Unbeholden, the lowest-ranking caste composed of thieves and rogues. Jhessians' upward and downward mobility among the castes is considered shockingly radical by the more traditional mores of the Inner Three.
