The Inlam originates in the east from Lake Altalith, flows deep into the Fault dividing Laelith in two along its entire length, and ends its frenzied course in the west with a Great Cascade that plunges into the Fault Cliffs of Vorn. The gradient of the torrent is low, but its banks rise increasingly rapidly, reaching a height of 900 meters at the end of The High Terrace. Its water level varies depending on the rainfall and the melting of the snow covering the surrounding mountains, as well as certain more mysterious circumstances. Five bridges span it, creating bottlenecks that restrict the movement of goods and inhabitants.

The Inlam is a major place of spirituality for the city because even though it has long served as an open sewer and a site for ritual burials, the Great Dryness, when decreed by the God-King, gives it a new lease of life. Similarly, the Torracles, a special caste of diviners who read the future in the meanderings of the stream, have now gained a good reputation thanks to their predictions.
