Description
Pronounced: (As-ter-in)Any questions? Feel free to ask!
Ari's home is in the Valley (the bottom left corner). Some of the smaller rivers and forests aren't labeled. Only the big landmarks are named.

My intention was the Heridan Forest, yeah.

I'm curious about something. Well, I have a few questions 
π: 0 β©: 1
The whole country is pretty small (think both islands being the combined size of Brazil). As for location, the country is fairly warm, with a pretty uniform ecosystem. I'd say it'd be placed around where the US/Mexico is located. The only real snow you see is in the mountains and pretty rarely in extreme winters. Other than that, the weather is warm most of the time.

Ahh ok. So with Trust, being more toward the north, would it be more like the coast of Maine?
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, probably slightly warmer than Maine.

Alright ^^ Thanks for that ^^

wait, wait, where exactly is Bayde's camp??
π: 0 β©: 1
The tent and most of his forces are focussed around Rikaran (bottom right corner of the East Island) and the surrounding area.

And he has to go from there, all the way to the top left...he's gonna die.
(Well, not really, but y'know)

Yeah, itβs a long way, but flying is far more direct than any other means of transport. Theyβve got that going for them at least
π: 0 β©: 1
True. But if the humans were successful in killing off the CloudMakers, I'm expecting most of all races, to at least try, since I don't feel they'll be accepting of "new gods".
I'm still not sure if Ari is fully healed, AND if he has to fly with Fen, so open...well...
*Nervous bites nails, waiting (hoping im not bothering you with this)*

Haha, youβre not bothering me at all, thatβs a very legitimate concern. Unlike the Cloud Makers though, Ariβs pretty tiny. Hopefully people on the ground wonβt be able to see them up in the sky.

Hope so!
(Just caught up yesterday, very excited!)

The sequel of TCM explores a lot more locations on the map.
π: 0 β©: 1
then I must continue reading! FASTER!

How did you make the map? I'm trying to figure out map making for world building purposes and can't seem to find any tutorials that click with my brain. :'D
π: 0 β©: 1
This probably isn't going to be super helpful, but I made it that same way I'd make any drawing. I just sketched it then colored it in, obvious keeping gravity in mind when drawing the rivers and mountains.
I actually have been meaning to redraw this, and if I do, I'll try to do a little mini tutorial.

Stories with maps are always favourites!!!
Plus, it makes me feel like these worlds could exist somewhere out there in the universe (or alternate reality).
π: 0 β©: 1
I like to think so
Thanks!
π: 0 β©: 1
No problem!
I'd binge read your comic yesterday and fell in love with the world building and the characters I'm looking forward to see how this plays out!
π: 0 β©: 1
Thank you!

First of all, great job with the map, it looks really good! And a lot easier to follow than most maps in real life.....
Ari and the gang has come quite far, I see. If they're in Kurnam or Chellan now they just have to continue northeast to where Isis is, right? It would be the height of irony if they decided to go southeast instead.
I got two questions, by the way. First of all, is this all the land that exists on this planet? Or are there more continents and islands but they're not shown here? Also, what is Altusi? Is it where Altus used to live?
π: 0 β©: 1
Thanks! The storm actually blew the gang South quite a bit so now they're near the town, Astar. Regardless, they plan to continue Northeast towards the mountains.
This is all of the land on this planet, yes. Altus ruled most of the planet with his vast oceans which is one of the reasons why Rikus saw him as such a threat.
Altusi was a land named after Altus and he did spend a lot of time there. That's actually where Fen was born, but there's more on that later.

So is Ari's team in Kurnam or Chellan now or am I reading this wrong?
I love how amazingly well thought out this is! It's amazing.

Thanks!
The storm actually blew them South quite a bit so they're close to Astar now.

Ok sweet! Is the entire planet going to be explored? (This includes through flashbacks and such too...)
π: 0 β©: 1
Not the entire planet, but most of it.Β
π: 0 β©: 2
Where are they now? Cause honestly I can't tell.
π: 0 β©: 1
Sweet! Can't wait!

raith? Like those shadowy things from Lord of the Rings? o.o
π: 0 β©: 1
Is that what they're called?
Oops XD
π: 0 β©: 1
lol. XD
I just looked it up, they're called wraiths, or ringwraiths. I was close though. (or nazgul)
π: 0 β©: 0
Yup, they crossed the entire West Island so far.
π: 0 β©: 1
what's the nearest marked land they're at?
π: 0 β©: 1
O.O They are a bit close to where Rikus lives...and a bit far from Isis...
π: 0 β©: 1
Yup, both are true.

Ugh makin maps is hard I know, but you made an amazin map for sure. I'm currently doin a map which looks NOWHERE near as great as this one ^_^
π: 0 β©: 1
I'm sure it looks fantastic!

end of vol. 6 and they're at Shalla's Swamp...
Altusi is such a long way north - have no idea right now how Fen reached the Swamp alive from there...
You've shown the bridges at Rikaran and the Fortress, but not to Altusi - isn't it complete?
π: 0 β©: 1
that was the first bridge they tried to build. It collapsed, and now they're trying to build it again. There'll be more on that later.
