Hambry was once loyal to the Affiliation however lately their once lucrative fishing trade has decreased and support from the Affiliation has decreased as Farson gained power. It is this that led to Kimba Rimer taking power and began the slow change of the wealthy landowners into supporting Farson.

It serves as part of the main setting of Wizard and Glass. Roland is sent to Hambry by his father to take inventory of the town and barony's resources.
