Hagh

Hagh is a god worshiped in the Tilean city-state Vedenza/Tobaro.[1][2] He may embody darker concepts, as when Orsini Sardus opened his Of the Late War, an account of The War of Beasts, he did so by invoking the “light of blessed Myrmidia” as well as “the shadow of chill Hagh.”[1]
Notes
Context for the passage reveals the deity’s name as “Hagh” and “the shadow of chill Hagh” as the full invocation, similar to “the blessed light of Myrmidia” for the goddess Myrmidia.
It seems plausible that "Hagh" on page 5 of Monstrous Arcanum is a typographical error and should indeed be "Hag." This interpretation aligns with the Italian (Tilean) term "Strega," which means "witch" and fits the context of the story in the book, particularly if referring to the leader of the Morrite cult, Motiara called in fact, Strega of the Bone Hills.
