  • An island kingdom titled Valdren Isle, 'Kingdom of Tides and Stone', painted in a sun-faded palette of golden ochre and burnt sienna with dusty blue seas and a lion shield on the cartouche. The fjords line the northern coast as the Fjords of Kaelor, a row of steep snowy peaks split by deep inlets around Keldrask, Isepeak, Thornskard and Glacierwatch. The marshes fill the heart of the island as the Mire of Selwyn, a misty maze of reeds and channels, and in its southern half lies the sunken city of Drowned Lethara, dozens of drowned towers and broken arches standing in the water. Ravenholt, Eldenford, Cairnwatch, Sunmere and Karthlyn are the main towns, linked by dotted roads, with The Redspine Range in the east and The Gilded Heights in the west. A large sea serpent coils through Serpent's Reach beside a few ships. The legend lists city, ruin, marsh and road. One western town label is garbled, and Cairnwatch, Stonehollow and the Mire of Selwyn are reused names.

  • A grim mountain realm titled The Ashen Highlands, on scorched, black-edged parchment with a skull-crowned cartouche and blood-red banners, almost every place carrying a short ominous motto. The volcanic range is The Emberspine, 'Fire Remembers', where Mount Kharzul, 'The Bleeding Summit', erupts beside the Molten Teeth and a glowing river called Emberflow winds down past Blackspire Keep to the red falls of Cinderfall. The haunted forest is Mournwood, 'Where Trees Remember', a misty mass of bare twisted trees with a giant skull at its heart. High valleys and passes link the realm: The Crownreach peaks, Veyrath Pass 'The Stone Gate', Highcrag Hold, Stormgate Fortress above its waterfalls and Duskvale 'The Last Light'. A whale and two dolphins swim in The Sable Coast, 'Black Waters, Older Things', and Ebonmere is a dark lake with an island tower. A 100-mile scale bar sits in the corner. Ravenwatch, Thornridge, Stonehollow and Veyrath are reused names.

  • An elven continent titled Aelthoria, 'Land of Evergreen Skies and Timeless Seas', painted in deep blues and greens with gold-leaf vines, white flowers and a gilded tree in the border. It packs both extremes of the prompt into one land. The north is winter: the Starfall Peaks hold snowy pine forests around two frozen lakes, Frostmere and the larger glowing Glacierdeep, with elven Thalewyn between them and Moonfall Pass leading east. The south is tropical: The Verdant Expanse is a dense jungle with waterfalls, and the Sylvaren Coast opens onto turquoise shallows where the Nimriel Reefs glow with colourful coral among palm islets. White-spired cities such as Ilyndor, Eldermere, Larethil, Caelthorne, Mirelith and Tidebloom Haven sit among Vaelor Woods and the Sunpetal Hills, while the volcanic Emberroot Range smokes in the southwest. A whale, two dolphins and small sea dragons swim the edges, and a 300-mile scale bar sits at the bottom. Frostmere, Ilyndor and Eldermere are reused names.

  • A kingdom map styled as an antique nautical chart, with faded turquoise seas, rhumb lines, depth soundings and a lion-flanked cartouche reading The Kingdom of Valerin. A dashed red border separates it from neighbours such as the Thornwold Marches, Frostmark Reaches, Karston Highlands, Eldenmere Principalities, Grayspine Holdfast and Emberfield Barony. The long wall is The Veyran Wall, a towered rampart running the full width of the north from Northgate to Eastwatch Gate. South of it, the capital Mareth, Liora Keep, Duncrest, Cedarfall, Stonehollow and Sablewatch sit among the Sungold Plains and Eastern Vale. The tropical coast fills the south as the Thalorin Jungle, a dense palm forest hiding temples and waterfalls, opening onto Coral Reach and The Emerald Reef with glowing coral among palm islets. Sea serpents and ships sail the Bay of Elowen and The Azure Expanse, and the scale bar runs to 200 leagues. The Veyran Wall, Ravenford and Stonehollow are reused names.

  • A richly painted world map in a tabletop style, where every mountain, forest and castle stands up from the land and clouds frame the edges. Six lands surround The Cerulean Expanse: green Eldamar, autumnal Thornevale, the frozen Caldrin with its icefields, the desert Serynth, jungle-covered Drakthal and the island of Talassa. The sacred mountain is Mount Aeloria, a lone snowy peak on its own island in the middle of the sea, crowned with a burst of light and ringed by clouds and a waterfall. The vineyards are the Veylan Vines on Serynth, a round terraced hill of green rows with a villa on top, just above the Kharuzan Desert. The Isles of Merath, The Sunken Marches and the Zephyrian Isles scatter across the water. Sea monsters include a multi-headed serpent, a red kraken, a giant turtle, a whale and a whirlpool in The Shifting Deep. There is no scale bar, and Mount Aeloria, the Veylan Vines and Silverwood are reused names.

  • An archipelago titled The Isles of Vaelora, engraved in fine line work and hand-tinted in sandy golds, soft greens and faded blues, with sea dragons and tridents framing the scale cartouche. The great desert fills the large western island as the Sahdarin Waste, a sea of dunes crossed by dotted caravan routes with camel trains linking the Oasis of Mirath, Oasis of Qamr and Oasis of Ilyan, Karim and Talaris waystations, Dustwind Pass and the walled towns of Qal Sereen and Sunspire. The steppes fill the large eastern island as the Kheran Steppe, open green grassland dotted with round tents at Talar, Orun and Beshar camps and herds of horses, with Port Velis and Sable Reach on its coasts. Smaller islands include Namarra, Eshkel, the snowy Thalor Isle, the Velisey Isles, forested Kareth and volcanic Lyrnath. Tall ships cross the Straits of Vaelora and the Emerald Sea, and the scale runs to 300 leagues. Sunspire, Kareth and Vaelora are reused names.

  • An elven coastline titled The Coast of Elynthar, painted in deep blue and green with gold-leaf vines, tree emblems and two elven figures framing the cartouche, at a slight bird's-eye angle. The giant waterfall is The Silverfall, a broad white curtain pouring off the cliff edge of The High Plateau below Thalendir's spired castle, sending a river winding to the sea. The long wall is the Vaelorn Wall, a towered rampart running right across the land from Westgate past Stoneward Keep to Eastgate, cut through by the waterfall's spray. The coast is properly rugged: Lirien Harbour sits on Aeloria Bay, Moonspire Head carries a white castle on a crag, and Thornmere, Kelvar Point, Mistral Cove, Serenreach and Dawnshield break up the shore among dozens of rocky islets. The Starfall Isles and the Isle of Velanor sit offshore. Silvermead is labelled twice, and the scale bar runs to 60 leagues. Thornmere, Ravenwood and Aeloria are reused names.

  • A dramatic mountain realm painted in a tabletop style, with every snowy peak, pine and tower raised up from the land, and a white-haired wind face blowing from each corner amid swirling clouds and autumn leaves. The ring of mountains is the Aurel Peaks, a full circle of snow-capped summits around Lake Vaelith, a deep blue lake holding a castle island, rocky islets and a small serpent, draining south through twin waterfalls under an arched bridge. The haunted forest is The Hollow Boughs in the east, a grey, misty tangle of bare twisted trees hiding a dark spired castle. High valleys and passes link the realm: Skyrend's castle crowns a plateau in the northwest, Thornpass guards a gatehouse on the valley road, and Mournvale is a village beside a river and stone bridge. A second lake with its own serpent sits in the southeast. Only six places carry names, and there is no scale bar. Lake Vaelith and the Hollow Boughs are reused names.

  • A dark kingdom map titled Kingdom of Veyrhold, 'Stone, Oath, Endure', on scorched, black-edged parchment with a stag banner, a skull compass and a blood-red border separating it from Drakengaard, Morgrath, Karsten, Thaldor, Sordell 'The Red Mire' and Bramwood 'The Shrouded Wilds'. The canyon is The Ashen Rift, a deep chasm glowing with red cracks that slices diagonally across the kingdom, crossed by Ember Bridge and Halldown Crossing with Riftwatch on its rim. The chalk cliffs line the whole western coast, white cliffs dropping into The Gallow Sea with The Ivory Stacks standing offshore beside a lighthouse near Palehaven. The capital Veyrhold sits in the north beside Caelthorne's lake, with Kharrow Keep, Dunmere, Eldengate, Ashgrove, Greyfield and Stormhollow spread across the land. A detailed legend lists sixteen symbols, and the scale runs to 100 leagues. One southern label is garbled, and Veyrhold, Ravenford and Stormhollow are reused names.

  • A mountain realm titled The Vaelspire Range 'and the Lands Thereabout', engraved in fine line work and hand-tinted in soft blues, ochres and greens. The crater city is Veyrath, a walled round city with a central spired citadel sitting inside the Caldera of Orm, a huge terraced crater ringed by a moat, with waterfalls spilling out of its southern rim. Ruins are everywhere: the Ruins of Telmar, The Broken Road lined with crumbling arches and an old aqueduct, Cravenford, Dun Kareth and Mournwatch Fortress, each marked as ruined. High passes and valleys thread the range, including The Ashen Pass, Sorrowdeep Valley, Eldren Vale and Stonefall Gorge, with Helmgard Keep and Mount Thalakor in the heights. The harbour town of Thalorn sits on The Sable Gulf, where a giant kraken wraps a sinking ship among tall vessels and the Stormcrown Isles. The scale bar runs to 40 leagues. One label below Karthen repeats in garbled form, and Veyrath and Frostmere are reused names.

  • Lands ring the Nareth Inland Sea in soft watercolour on textured paper, with a named wind face in each corner offering a caption such as Westwind 'Brings Mists and Forgotten Things'. The marshes fill the whole southwest as The Mere of Veyl, a misty maze of channels and reedy islets, and at its heart lies the sunken city of Drowned Elaris, a cluster of drowned spires, domes and arches rising from the water. The chalk cliffs line the northeast as the Veyran Cliffs, a long wall of white cliffs with Hallowmere on top and The Ivory Stacks standing offshore. Around the sea, Lysfen is a walled harbour city in the north, with Thornmere, Caldrin, Stoneford, Sorrath, Thalorin, Veltheron and Merrowdale on the other shores, and the Ashenward Hills glow with lava in the southeast. The Sailmere Isles and a castle island dot the water. The legend lists ten symbols, and the scale runs to 100 leagues. Thornmere, Caldrin, Thalorin and the Ivory Stacks are reused names.

  • A world map drawn entirely in black ink with fine hatching on cream paper and no colour, with six landmasses spread across The Veylan Sea, The Tidespire Ocean and The Sunless Sea. The chain of lakes runs down the eastern side of Veloria as the Lakes of Irendel: Lake Serenn, Lake Haleth, Lake Marwen, Lake Calen and Lake Ithril, each joined to the next by a short river. Beside them, the Avarin Terraces climb a hillside in neat curved rows of vines around a terraced town. The other lands are the snowy Norgrath, forested Thalassia, the desert of Kharun with Zarash and Qamur, the round island of Ilyndra and the volcanic Sareth. A large whale spouts in The Orelian Deep, three dolphins leap near the Silverwake Isles, and several tall ships sail the seas, with small sea beasts in the corners. A 1,000-league scale bar sits at the bottom. Veloria, Thornmere, Lunareth and Sunspire are reused names, and the Veylan Sea also appears on another map.

  • Lands ring an inland sea called Mere Vael, drawn in black ink on cream paper in the manner of a classic novel endpaper, with a named wind face in each corner and the title cartouche floating in the middle of the water. The crater city is Craterhold in the east, a walled city of concentric streets sitting at the bottom of a huge terraced crater, with a road climbing out toward Sunscar. The winter north is Frostpine Reach, a band of snowy pine forests and peaks around Lake Iskral, a frozen lake with cracked ice, beside Glaciereth, Icerend, Whitehelm and Northwatch. Eldwyn and The Greenward fill the west with forests and towns such as Mirthwood, Rivenford and Thornbridge, The Sable Marches and Blackmoor close the south, and the Ashen Steppe and Kareth Badlands spread east. Sunscar is labelled twice, there is no scale bar, and Craterhold, Northwatch and Kareth are reused names.

  • An elven world map in deep blue and green with gold-leaf corners and a large gilded compass rose between the continents, each land carrying a subtitle. The fjords crown the north as the Fjords of Ilmyr on Vaelindor, 'The Frozen Crown', a jagged band of snowy peaks split by narrow inlets around Thalgrim, Skjoldrath, Ilyrskara and Morvellen. The delta is The Seryn Delta on Seryndor, 'The River Crown', where a great river fans out into dozens of glowing channels across the eastern coast toward Miralith and Talandis. The other lands are green Aelthoria 'The Verdant Realm', Namariel 'The Dawnspire' with its crystal city of Aurenfall, the desert Khalduran 'The Sunscorched' with the volcano Ashenpeak, and the scattered isles of Thalassir and Lythéa. Sea serpents coil in The Westering Deep and The Starfallen Ocean. The scale bar is in kilometres, an anachronism, and a couple of northern labels are garbled. Aelthoria, Sunspire, Kareth and Silvermere are reused names.

  • An archipelago titled The Veyr Isles, hand-drawn on aged parchment in muted sepia, grey and ink tones, with a skull beneath the scrolled cartouche and dotted sea routes winding between dozens of rocky islands. The haunted forest is Mourningwood, a dark tangle of bare twisted trees with misty ruins at Wraithmere and Duskfen covering the northwestern island. The volcanic range is the Ashen Spires, a large island of black peaks where a central volcano smokes and orange lava rivers run down past Cinderreach toward Gloomharbor. The sea serpent is the centrepiece, a huge coiling beast in Serpent's Wake with a whirlpool beside it, while a smaller sea dragon lurks in the lower left. Other islands include Stormhallow, Velmora with its waterfall castle, Thalgrin, Sunspire, Eldriss, Mistveil, Caelthun, Nerath and the ruined Tidegrave Isles. Several sailing ships and a few wrecks dot the water. There is no scale bar, and Mourningwood, Stormhallow, Velmora and Sunspire are reused names.

  • A cheerful storybook kingdom titled The Kingdom of Veloria, bright with green hills, red-roofed towns, windmills and blue-spired castles inside an ornate gilded border with a griffin shield and a dashed kingdom border. The volcanic range is the Firesong Mountains in the north, where a volcano erupts over the castle of Embercrest and glowing lava rivers spill down the slopes toward the Ashen Reaches. The tropical coast fills the west as The Jadewild and the Jadewild Coast, a dense palm jungle with temple ruins and waterfalls opening onto turquoise shallows, coral and Serpent Reef. Coralhaven is the walled harbour capital on the coast, while Sunspire Keep, Mossmere on its lake, Briarwood, Willowbrook, Eldenfield, Thornridge, Stonehollow, Redpine and Silverlake fill the farmland, with The Green Marches to the south. The legend lists capital, towns, castles, roads and the border. The scale bar is in kilometres, an anachronism, and Veloria, Thornridge, Stonehollow and Willowbrook are reused names.

  • A coastal region on aged parchment in muted sepia, olive and pale blue, with the sea labelled Veyrath Coast and The Cerulean Deep. The great desert fills the north as the Sahrin Wastes, rippling dunes crossed by dotted caravan routes, including the Caravan Road of a Thousand Days, linking the palm oases of Oasis Meruun and Oasis Tazir to the desert forts of Dun Qasr and Zul-Mahraq beneath Karath Ridge and The Scorched Spine. The vineyards are the Vinthel Terraces, a round hill of neat terraced rows crowned by the town of Vinthel, with the Lorian Vineyards and the Silverfalls beyond. The coast is properly rugged, with Cape Orven, Thornwatch, Port Caldris on Caldris Bay, Talerin Hold, Moonhaven and Kethra breaking up the shore, plus the Seaglass and Starfall Isles offshore. A huge kraken wraps a sinking ship in the lower left, and small serpents surface in the gulfs. The scale bar's numbers are smudged, and Stormhollow, Starfall Isles and Veyrath are reused names.

  • A coastal region drawn as an antique nautical chart, with faded blue water criss-crossed by rhumb lines from a central compass rose and scattered with depth soundings. The chain of lakes is The Morlan Lakes in the northwest, five lakes from Lake Aurel through Lake Dorn, Lake Thyne and Lake Velin to Lake Cael, joined by short rivers that wind down to the coast. Ruins are everywhere: The Broken Road runs past the Ruins of Edrath, a deserted hamlet and the Karthen Ruins, while Crownhold and Eastwatch are both marked as in ruins and Blackmere is a dark, dead marsh. The coast is properly rugged, with Cape Veyr's lighthouse, the walled harbour of Sablehaven on the Gulf of Thorns, Mornscar Point and dozens of rocky islands.

The scale runs to 50 leagues, and one label repeats 'Deserted' in garbled form.

  • A mountain realm drawn in black ink on cream paper in the manner of a classic novel endpaper, with fine hatching on every peak and no colour beyond a faint grey tint on the lakes. The delta is the Morrow Delta, where the Morrow River fans out into a dozen channels around the lighthouse town of Deltara before spilling into Greywake Bay. The winter country fills the uplands: The Whitepine Vale is dotted with snowy pines around Pinehollow and Eldrenes, and four frozen lakes, Silverdeep, Isenmere, Thaldrin Lake and Blackfrost Lake, are drawn with cracked ice. High valleys and passes link it all, including Keldrin Pass below Highwatch Citadel, Grimholt Bastion with its arched bridge and Wellspire Monastery on a crag. A whale spouts in the bay and three dolphins leap nearby, while Northreach and Seabright guard the coast. The legend lists nine symbols, from mountain peak to marsh, and a 50-mile scale bar sits at the bottom. Vaelthorn, Ravenwood and Stonehollow are reused names.

  • A cheerful storybook archipelago titled The Amber Isles, painted in bright turquoise, green and gold with red-roofed towns, lighthouses and blossoming islands inside an ornate gilded border. Each corner holds a named wind face with a short caption, from Boreth 'Bringer of Clear Skies' to Sereen 'Whisperer of New Growth'. The volcanic range fills the large northern island as the Ashen Peaks, a smoking volcano with a bright orange river of lava called Cinder Flow running down past Emberwatch toward Stonehelm.

The walled capital is Asterhold on Valedryn, a towered city on the winding River Ansel, ringed by a patchwork of farmland and small villages such as Elderford, Briarwick, Halden, Greenhollow and Stonefield. Eldamar holds Rivenfall's waterfall castle, while The Drowned Kingdoms are a field of sunken towers off The Amber Coast. A coiling sea serpent rises near the Stormhollow Isles, a large whale spouts in The Saphire Deep, and five dolphins leap through The Azure Expanse. A legend titled The Known Worlds and a 1,000-league scale complete the chart. 'Sapphire' is misspelt, and Valedryn, Asterhold and Sunspire are reused names.

  • A dark archipelago titled The Ashen Isles, 'A Realm of Wind, Stone and Enduring Folk', on scorched, black-edged parchment with a black sea, red dotted borders and a skull-flanked scale cartouche. Each corner holds a wind face with a grim caption, such as Westwind 'Bears Memories of Fallen Things'. The steppes fill the large central island as the Veyrath Steppe, open grassland crossed by herds of horses with round tents at Sunhollow Tents and standing stones near Khar Uul.

Below them the Vaelor Peaks fill the middle of the land, with Mount Serath standing tallest in the east and The Nareth Pass winding down into Eldwyn Vale, a high green valley with a river and road. The tropical coast fills the south, where the Tavora Jungle spills waterfalls toward Coral Reach, a glowing lagoon of turquoise shallows and dozens of palm-covered islets. Lumehaven is the only town named on the western coast. A sea dragon coils in the northwest corner, a brown kraken rises in The Sapphire Expanse and a winged fish leaps in The Emerald Sea,. It reads as painted relief more than a clean atlas, there is no scale bar, and Mount Serath and Coral Reach are reused names.

  • An island kingdom titled Veyrholm, 'Kingdom of Rivers, Woodlands and Fallen Things', drawn in black ink on cream paper in the manner of a classic novel endpaper, with fine stippling and a faint grey wash on the water. The haunted forest is The Hollow Weald, 'Where Trees Remember', a large wood of bare, twisted trees in the west hiding Ashen Keep and the ruins of Grimholt. The delta is the Duskwater Delta, where the river Veyr runs south from the lake of Mournmere and fans out into dozens of channels around islets, towers and ruins before reaching The Sundered Expanse.

Other features include the Sunspire Range, The Amber Wastes on Sundara, the Vaelir Mountains and the smoking Eldinarch Isles. The legend is detailed, with elevation bands and twelve symbols, and the scale bar is in kilometres, an anachronism. Rimehold appears twice on Kareth, a few labels are garbled, and Kareth and Stormhollow are reused names.

  • A kingdom map titled Kingdom of Varendor, drawn entirely in black ink with fine hatching on cream paper and no colour, with a crowned lion shield on the cartouche and a dashed border separating it from the Draemont Marches, Highland Reaches, Stonevale and Morgrath Principality.

North of it, Thornwatch, Eldermere and Ravenfort's castle sit among forests and lakes. South of the chasm the land turns tropical: the Veyra Jungle is a dense palm forest hiding stepped temples and waterfalls, and the coast opens onto the Sable Reef, a scatter of palm islets and shoals. Port Caldris is a busy walled harbour with ships, and Nareth guards the east. The legend is small and simple (castle, town, road, border).

Ruins are scattered everywhere and marked in the legend as ruins or abandoned cities: The Broken Road runs across Veyrath past Cinderholt, Sul-Nar and Zarath-Kel, and more broken towers fill Kaelthus, the snowy Talvoria and the dark Drakemoor with its Hollow Marches and The Bleeding Delta. Orrenfall in the northeast is a forested land of lakes and towns such as Caelthar, Hallowmere and Gravenspire. A long sea serpent coils through the middle of the sea beside several tall ships, and a whirlpool turns in The Shattered Sea.

  • An island kingdom titled Valdren, 'Kingdom of Ice and Waters', painted in frost blue, white and silver, with snow on every peak and ice floes crowding the sea around it. The giant waterfall is Silverfall, a broad white curtain pouring off the cliff edge of The Skyreach Plateau in the centre of the island into a cloud of spray. The chain of lakes rings the plateau: Lake Aelwyn, Lake Caerith, Lake Thalor and Frostmere sit above it, and Lake Morwen and Lake Serath step down below the falls, all joined by winding rivers. The Vorgrim Peaks crown the north, The Winterscar Range and the vast Solthane Glacier fill the east, and the Galenwood Frostgrove and Thornveil Woods are snowy pine forests. Castles such as Mistral Holt, Icerend Keep, Eldrenfell and Rimehold guard the coasts. A whale swims in The Nivaran Reach and three dolphins leap in the Frostwhale Sea. There is no scale bar, and Valdren, Frostmere, Lake Aelwyn and Lake Serath are reused names.

  • An island kingdom titled Aeldrin, 'Crown of Stone, Heart of Waters', drawn entirely in black ink with fine hatching on cream paper and no colour, with a griffin on the leafy cartouche. The ring of mountains is The Crown Peaks, a full circle of jagged hatched summits around Lake Vareth, which holds a small castle on Silverisle at its centre. The long wall is The Grey Wall, a towered rampart that runs right across the island from Mirhaven past Westgate to Eastgate, sealing off the mountainous north from the farmland below. South of the wall, Silverwood fills the west with pines, Riversong and Highmead sit among fields, and Greenmere Fen spreads marshland in the east near Duskvale. Coastal towns include Tidewatch, Southreach, Mourncliff, Thornwatch, Stormhollow, Frostmere and Stonefell. Small ships sail The Dawnshore and Ember Seas, and a sea serpent coils in The Stillwater Sea. A 100-mile scale bar sits at the bottom. Frostmere, Stormhollow, Ravenwood and Silverwood are reused names.

  • A grim island kingdom on scorched, black-edged parchment, with slate seas, red dotted roads and a skull compass, framed by four wind faces named Northwind, Stormwind, Duskwind and Gravewind. The ancient forest is the Elderwold, a vast dark forest of huge twisted trees with glowing red eyes in the canopy, covering the whole western half around a giant gnarled tree. The marshes fill the east as Mournfen, a misty maze of channels, dead trees and broken towers. At their heart lies Thal Ossir, 'The Drowned Crown', a sprawling sunken city of drowned domes, spires and arched bridges, with a giant stone face half submerged beside it. Veyrath's dark castle crowns the northern mountains beside a smoking volcano, and a harbour town with piers sits on the southern cliffs among waterfalls. Red-sailed ships cross the Blackwake Sea, and two sea serpents lurk near The Shattered Reef. Only a few places carry names, there is no scale bar, and Veyrath is a much-reused name.

  • Lands ring an inland sea called the Sea of Vaelorn, painted in a tabletop style where every mountain, castle, tree and red-roofed village stands up at a bird's-eye angle. The Dragon Peaks fill the north as a wall of jagged snowy summits, and Wyrmhold Lair is marked with a black dragon perched over a glowing red cave. Around the sea, the farmland is the clear highlight: a patchwork of green and gold fields, vineyards and orchards dotted with small villages and winding roads, especially around Brindlewick in the west and Caer Dovan, a walled harbour town with a bridge in the south. Eldervale's castle sits on a crag in the northwest, Thornmere holds the east, and an island castle anchors the middle of the sea. Waterfalls spill from the cliffs, and sailing ships cross the water. The legend is small and simple (village, road, dragon lair, mountains), and there is no scale bar. Wyrmhold Lair, Eldervale, Thornmere and Brindlewick all appear on other maps here.

  • An island kingdom titled Kingdom of Aeldoria, 'Rivers, Peoples, Shores, One Realm', drawn as an antique nautical chart with faded blue seas, rhumb lines and depth soundings, and griffins holding a tree shield on the cartouche. The walled capital is Veyrhold, a many-spired castle city at the centre of the island where the River Ellisar flows south past it, then fans out into The Sundered Delta. The frozen north is The Nivren Glacier and Frostmere Reach, a band of snowy peaks and cracked ice with Skartholm, Tharengard, Icefang Spire and Whitehelm, cut by Stormgut Fjord. South of the ice the land turns to farmland and forest, including Eldengrove, the Stonebarrow Hills, Greenhollow, Solmere Woods and The Aurelian Downs, with windmills and towns such as Oakridge, Harrowfield, Thornwatch, Mareth and Suncrest. A crowned sea serpent, a spiny sea beast and a whale-like creature surface around the coast. The scale runs to 100 leagues. Veyrhold, Thornwatch, Greenhollow and Oakridge are reused names, and Aeldoria appears on other maps here.

  • A mountain realm drawn entirely in black ink with fine hatching on cream paper and no colour, viewed at a bird's-eye angle with mist drifting through the valleys. The Vareth Peaks fill the north, and Draeven Pass climbs through them past a small fort and an arched bridge, with Karthen Hold perched on a crag in the northeast. The haunted forest is The Wraithwood, a misty mass of bare, twisted trees and ruined towers spreading across the western slopes. The salt flats fill the east as the Saltmere Flats, a pale cracked polygon plain with a dry pool, ringed by mesas and the ruined towers of Ashen Spire. Lake Orwyn spreads across the southwest with Orwynkeep's harbour on its shore and several sailing ships on its water. Waterfalls drop toward the river town of Stoneford with its arched bridge, and Greyfell sits in the southeast. A plain compass and a 50-mile scale bar sit in the corners. The Wraithwood and the Saltmere Flats are reused names.

  • A richly painted island kingdom in a tabletop style, where castles, forests and snowy peaks stand up from the land at a bird's-eye angle above deep blue seas. The walled capital is Varendor, a large towered city where the River Aurel splits around it, crossed by arched bridges. The steppes fill the eastern half as The Veldra Steppes, open golden grassland dotted with round tents, banners and horse riders. The Ironcrest Peaks crown the northwest with waterfalls spilling down, and Elderglen is a glowing ancient forest with a giant tree and standing stones. Stormhaven Bay holds a lighthouse castle on the western cliffs, and a stone circle sits on an island in the south. A long blue sea serpent coils through the waves in the lower left, and a huge red kraken drags a ship down in the lower right. Only six places are named, there is no scale bar, and Varendor and the River Aurel are reused names.

  • A kingdom map titled Velmora, drawn entirely in black ink with fine hatching on cream paper and no colour, with a rampant lion shield beneath the crowned name. The frozen north is a band of glaciers and snowy peaks: Frostmere, the Glacier of Tharn and The Tharnspine, with Ravenwatch Keep on a crag, Icewind Pass and Stormcrag Hall. The tropical coast fills the south as The Verdant Expanse and the Jadecoil Coast, a dense palm jungle split by the Velmora River and its delta, opening onto the Sable Reef and The Coral Sea. Between ice and jungle, towns and castles such as Caer Veyl, Northwall, Greybrook, Valewatch, Duskford, Morgrave and the harbour city of Eldhaven are linked by dotted roads, with Lake Edrin, Ironwood and The Emberwilds. Many sailing ships fill the seas. The scale bar shows both miles and kilometres, an anachronism. Velmora, Frostmere, Thornridge, Sunspire and the Sable Reef are reused names.

  • A coastal region on aged parchment in muted sepia, olive and faded blue, at a slight bird's-eye angle with an ornate border. The fjords line the northern coast as the Fjords of Velrûn, a row of steep snowy peaks split by long inlets named Tharngrim, Keldan, Morvath and Skaelrun Fjords, with the Draegar Peaks beyond. Below them the Mire of Thalen spreads out as a misty maze of channels and reed islands, joined by the Blackreed Marshes. At its heart lies Sunken Eryndor, a field of drowned towers, arches and a cathedral standing in the water, with the Drowned Halls to the east. The coast is properly rugged: Cape Varric's lighthouse, Greywake Harbour with its bridges, Selvaris, Crowsend and Sereth Isle guard the Bay of Sereth, and The Shattered Reef scatters islets offshore. The legend lists eleven symbols, and the scale bar is in kilometres, an anachronism. The Mire of Thalen, Mournwood and Eryndor are reused names.

  • A coastal region titled The Velmere Coast, painted with colourful raised relief in greens, ochres and deep turquoise at a bird's-eye angle. The canyon is Veyrath Canyon, a deep red-walled chasm that cuts diagonally across the land with a river at its floor, crossed by a long ruined bridge on The Broken Way. Ruins are everywhere: the Ruins of Caldrin, Fallen Kestrel, Redspire Ruin and The Weeping Towers, linked by the crumbling Old Thorne Road and lone watchtowers. The coast is properly rugged, with Cape Aranor's lighthouse, Northreach Bay, the waterfall-fed Harbour of Selwyn, Mareth Spire, the broad Azuredeep Bay, Crescent Cove and Tidegrave Point, while the jagged Serpent's Teeth and the Stormleaf Isles lie offshore. A large blue sea dragon coils through The Drowning Deep. The Karsthorn Range, Lake Myrren, the Ashen Plateau and Drakemoor Heights frame the inland edge. The scale bar is in kilometres, an anachronism, and Veyrath, Selwyn, Caldrin and Drakemoor are reused names.

  • A single continent painted in a tabletop style, where snowy peaks, castles, forests and red rock spires stand up from the land in rich colour. The frozen north is Frostmere and the Glacier of Thal, a broad sheet of cracked blue ice and jagged summits with the Thalgrin Peaks, Vaelbjorn and Icereach, breaking up into icebergs along The Shattered Fjords. The great desert fills the heart and south as The Sunscar Dunes, golden sand crossed by dotted caravan routes and camel trains linking the palm-ringed Oasis of Namar, Kharaz, Azrul and the Sahari Spires, fading into the red badlands of The Crimson Heath. Between ice and sand lie The Verdant Wilds, Silverwood and towns such as Stonehallow, Thornevale, Stormhold, Moonfell and Eryndor. A huge iridescent sea serpent coils through The Sable Expanse, and a whale leaps beside three dolphins in the lower right. There is no scale bar, and Frostmere, Veyrath, Stonehallow, Silverwood and Eryndor are reused names.

  • An island kingdom titled The Kingdom of Valdorin, 'Land of Stone Between Sea and Ice', drawn as an antique nautical chart with faded blue seas, depth soundings and two compass roses. The long wall is the Northwatch Wall, a towered rampart that runs the full width of the island from Westgate past Stonehelm to Eastgate, holding back the frozen north. Beyond it lies The Eirfrost, 'Frozen Wilds', a broad band of glaciers and snowy peaks including the Hrothfell Glacier, the Glacier of Silent Teeth, the Stormtusk Range and Whitewaste Tundra, with Kaldreach, Iceward Spire and Skarn Pass among them. South of the wall the capital Valdorin sits at a river junction among farmland and forests such as Greywood, Eldenwood and Mistwood, with towns including Oakridge, Ravenford, Highmere, Merehaven, Brineford and Trelan. Tall ships sail around the coast, with sea beasts lurking at the edges. The legend lists nine symbols, and the scale bar shows miles and kilometres, an anachronism. Valdorin, Oakridge, Ravenford and Thornmere are reused names.

  • A dark kingdom titled Kingdom of Veyrath, 'Blood Oaths, Deep Roots, Further Horizons', on scorched, black-edged parchment with blood-red borders and banners, framed by four wind faces with grim captions such as East Winds 'Stir Old Bones'. The Dragon Peaks fill the northeast, and the Dragon's Lair is marked with a red dragon above a glowing cave beyond Grimspine and Ashenhold. The tropical coast fills the south as the Thornveil Jungle, a dense dark jungle hiding a stepped temple at Serpent's Rest and Jadegrove, opening onto bright turquoise shallows around the Coralspine Isles and The Ember Keys, where coral and a shipwreck show through the water. The capital Veyrath stands on a lake in the centre, with Sableport's harbour, Mirewatch, Karthen, Caer Dunsmire, Valemoor, Bloodrise and Ivoryreach around it, and The Dreadmere is a dark wood in the middle. A kraken lurks off Talonshore. The scale bar is in kilometres, an anachronism, and its numbers are garbled. Veyrath and Stonehallow are reused names.

  • Lands ring the Sea of Nareth on aged parchment in muted greens, ochres and faded blue, with a lion holding the Varelith cartouche and a spouting whale with four dolphins in the middle of the sea. The ring of mountains sits in Thaldor in the southeast, a full circle of snowy peaks around Lake Elarin, a blue lake holding a small castle island, with Elaris on its southern edge. The volcanic range is The Ember Spires in the northeast, a dark range of erupting cones with bright lava rivers running past Ashenreach and Cinderfall toward the Scorched Wastes. The other realms around the shore are Frosthall Kingdom, Velmora with Caer Vell and Eldenford, Briarmoor, the red Red Expanse, Myrhold, The Greenmarch, Kharzul and the Moonridge highlands. Small islands such as the Stormlight, Serpent and Talonreach Isles dot the sea, with a couple of tall ships. There is no scale bar, and Velmora, Eryndell, Thalorin, Stonehollow and the Sea of Nareth are reused names.
