‘Innan’ means internally/within and ‘gard’ means within. Its name refers to an internal enclosure. It’s a magical world that is part of Mioko’s mind and exists on a plane separate from Jormungrund. Brandrrafn created the path into this world using his unique brand of rune magic and when he brought Mioko inside, a train and a single stretch of track were the first things her mind manifested.
