I regarded the vast map on the floor of the chamber. I could see, high on the map, Ax Glacier, Torvaldsland, and Hunjer and Skjern, and Helmutsport, and lower, Kassau and the great green forests, and the river Laurius, and Laura and Lydius, and lower, the islands, prominent among them Cos and Tyros; I saw the delta of Vosk, and Port Kar, and, inland, Ko-ro-ba, the Towers of the Morning, and Thentis, in the mountains of Thentis, famed for her tarn flocks; and, to the south, among many other cities, Tharna, of the vast silver mines; I saw the Voltai Range, and Glorious Ar, and the Cartius, and, far to the south, Turia, and near the shore of Thassa, the islands of Anango and Ianda, and on the coast, the free ports of Schendi and Bazi. There were, on the map, hundreds of cities, and promontories and peninsulas, and rivers and inland lakes and seas... The beast had been taken southeast of Ar, while moving southeast. Such a Path would take it below the eastern foothills of the Voltai and to the south. It was incredible." (Tribesmen of Gor, chapter 1)

Helmutsport is north of Kassau. The Skerry of Einar is taken as the southern boundary of Torvaldsland when approached from Thassa. TGV June 2003. The southern boundary of Torvaldsland when approached by land at the Thassa coast is not specified. Helmutsport is grouped with Ax Glacier, Torvaldsland, Hunjer, and Skjern, with Kassau placed lower on the map with the Northern Forests, and with the Laurius River with Lydius and Laura being grouped separately still. Book 10 Page 7. This may indicate that Helmutsport is at the border between Torvaldsland and the Northern Forests. Since Helmutsport is a free port, its location at the door to the Torvaldsland market would make sense. Free ports are administered by Merchants, which would suggest that Helmutsport is not a town of Torvaldslanders but is instead an outpost of Arian culture. Helmutsport is therefore more likely to be associated with the Northern Forests as a market niche for Merchants than as a Torvaldsland settlement.
