Another idea would be to add some of the various journeys - Kellhus to Momemn/Shimeh, Holy War to Shimeh, TGO to Golgotterath, Skin Eaters/Achamian to Ishual, Cnaiur/Serwe/Sorweel to Ishterbinith.

Did you attempt to mark Akka's Tower?

Just more things if you are bored ;)

If I do any roads, they likely won't be on this master map.  Quite probable I'd add them to any 'blow up' maps I may do, like the Gedea and Shimeh maps already mentioned.  Journeys would also be an interesting add, though.  Not sure, tbh.

Updated map.  Several revisions based on the text, mainly from Nansur to Amoteu.  Moved some features, added new places.  Getting pretty crowded in there.

You know, Somna, not to criticise, but i always wondered how the map would look if you also represented forests on it. I mean you also do a perspective representation of the mountains so it would be consistent to also depict the forests that way. Ever thought about that? I would very much like to see you do a version like that.

Thinking about it now, Kellais.  Thinking about it now...   ;)  Suppose I didn't seriously consider it before cuz none of Scott's maps ever show a forest.  We have the Mop (Meorn Wilderness), Thunyerus is described as a forest, and the forests of Kuniuri.  Any others anyone specifically remembers?  The rest would just be conjecture, but could be a fun project, if my computer can handle it...

Cool, Somna!

Yeah, the main problem is to know where forests are. We only have very few mentions and they are in a very general way. Maybe we could bother Scott with some info on it?

Well, MG bothered him enough to squeeze some acknowledgment out of him on TPB (referring to the Chinese cover). Seems you never know what actions get recompense. I fullt recommend bothering :).

Brilliant work, Som.

A very minor note: Marrow is included on a map from the iBook version of WLW.  It's west of Cil-Aujas on the river; perhaps a similar distance from Cil-Aujas as Maimor.

Thanks, profgrape.  Regarding Marrow.  I believe it only sprang up as a result of the bounty on scalps, and wasn't there at the time of the date on the map, which is 4109 (pre-dating the First Holy War).  I'm re-reading the series now (on TJE), so I should be able to verify that shortly.

Quite true -- I think I was so caught up with the awesomeness of the map that I missed the date entirely!

That map is outstanding. 

My favorite little touch is the special icon for where our friends the Consult hang out...

Which map?

Are there any major differences from the 4109 map and the map for AE?

Not much, mostly text sizing.  Marrow would be added, maybe some icons would change.  Still working out logistics of forests... ugh.
