'''Rambleman''' is the name given to some traveling merchants and peddlers on [[Nalthis]].{{book ref|wb|4}} They are more than simple traveling jugglers or storytellers, as they specialize in bringing news (for a price) and stories alongside their goods and services.{{wob ref|6024}}
[[Sisirinah|Siri]] seems to have frequently listened to stories from ramblemen in her youth. She had various notions of [[Hallandren]] that were affected by these tales; she thought of it as a tropical, colorful land, but also a place of death with walls built of skulls painted in obscene splotches of color.{{book ref|wb|2}}{{book ref|wb|4}} She also heard tales of other grandiose cities and interesting terrain in distant countries such as [[Xaka]] and [[Hudres]], although Hallandren was the only locale that was said to have a verdant jungle.{{book ref|wb|1}}{{book ref|wb|32}} The stories told by the ramblemen make her appreciate her small-town life in [[Idris]].{{book ref|wb|1}} After arriving in Hallandren, Siri realized that the stories of the ramblemen were heavily embellished.{{book ref|wb|4}}
==Trivia==
*Brandon cites "rambleman" as an example of an intriguing term in his novels that is not explicitly explored in the text, allowing the reader to do their own mental worldbuilding.{{wob ref|6024}}
