    Default *** Nov-Dec 2019 Challenge: The Scrolls of Guild ***

    The Scrolls of Guild [episode one]

    "Far in the East lies the kingdom of the Cartographer.
    There, in the city of Guild, is the great library of the Scribes, full of maps and scrolls from all over the world.
    And some say even from beyond. Varied and numerous are the styles and subjects of these maps, it is said."

    Show us one of these maps. Ideally as a scroll or an old worn parchment. But it could be on an old skin or wooden tiles tied together.
    It could even be etched in stone.

    Capture the spirit of the Guild, as you see it, and put it on a map. It can relate to the Guild World, Guild City, or places beyond.
    Something in or on the map should give the feel that it comes from the great library.

    Go big. You have the months of November and December to complete it. [CLs need holidays too ]
    Feel free to make a guild character of yourself; a mapmaker, a ruler, a villain, and offworld traveler from beyond.
    Just have fun and challenge yourself to make your next best map.

    [Last months was a bit more defined, so this time it's more open.]

    Hmmm... Would I get away with creating a map of the Great Library itself?

    Or is that a bit off topic?

    You can squeeze in a fun little map, if nothing else.
    This one is a lot more about the spirit of the Guild and having fun mapping.
    Nudge nudge.

    I think that should be fine.
    If you are going to use the layout of the one Robbie, our admin, created, then message him first.
    You can also feel free to craft a differrnt building as well, since the city of Guild is massive and unfinished.
    So a variety of libraries may well be hidden around. And who can say which is the true Great Library.

    Hopefully I can do a little something to join in.
    Like Beee, I am super busy with work, but this one really should not be missed.

    Hmmm, I do have one idea for this. However, should it be related to the city of Guild and the library therein or can we offer up our own unique, abstract take on the "spirit of the Guild"?
    That idea wouldn't really work as a scroll though, so I can probably come up with something else if not.
