Notes

The name Hyarastorni is not explained, though it clearly begins with an element meaning 'south' (presumably placing it in the south of the Mittalmar). The closing -torni may be 'downs' (compare tyrn in Tyrn Gorthad, the 'Barrow-downs'), in which case Hyarastorni could be interpreted as something like 'South Downs'. This interpretation is speculative, but it does fit the known geography of the area.
