Nordhold was an important planet of the Worldweb. [1] Nordholm is a world of long coasts and cold seas, originally devoted to fishing. [2] In Martin Silenus’ multi-world house, the library looked out to the glaciers and green skies of Nordholm. [3]

In the moments leading up to the perceived Ouster attack upon the Hegemony, Nordhold suffered terrorist attacks from Glennon-Height loyalists, who had been quiet for three-quarters of a century.[4] Ater the Fall, the people left the cities back to the coasts and their ancestral fishing boats. [2]
