'''Asham''' (known as ''Assaram'' and ''Ashalam'' in prior localizations), is a town in the [[Overworld (Dragon Quest III)|overworld]] of ''[[Dragon Quest III]]''. It located east of [[Romaria]]. It is typically a stopping point for accessing [[Isis]] and the [[Pyramid]] as well as the cave leading to [[Baharata]], and travelers can experience firsthand how the town got it's name after dealing with the avaricious merchants. It is also close to the left entrance of [[Nordy's Grotto]].<br />
