Description
I felt really kind of embarassed with not having a better map of the world of Aren than the old hastily produced sketch with Finnish names, so I decided to come up with something better. I used Gall stereographic projection, which naturally distorts the relative areas of land masses especially shrinking the equator, but it was easier to get the latitudes right this way. That means Erdasia is not only way bigger than I originally assumed but even bigger still. It's absolutely huge. More room for gryphomorps and Atal peoples I guess.

The map is still far from perfect, especially the eastern continents are probably completely out of whack and Tarasia may be too far North. Or not. It's all a big mess still, but at least it's better than before. Unfortunately I could not manage to fit many smaller locations on the map. If you'd like I could try making one with smaller but important regions numbered or something to that effect.

If you've spent any time looking at the old crappy map, you'll probably notice right away that there's one continent more on this one. Xipharasia is a continent that is known to exist but cannot be reached because of some kind of space-distorting field that prevents you from sailing straight towards it. If you tried hard enough, you'd simply end up sailing in a circle around it. The size and shape of this land mass is still largely uncertain, so you can consider it part fact part speculation at this point.
