    I have to say, I love this map as much as everyone else. The palette feels exquisitely balanced to me, and I love the subtle folds that give the impression the map is used, not just displayed. It really is quietly magnificent.

    (And the price stamp on the upper right edge is a perfect touch.)

    Just a couple very small typographical comments. In the text for the Roaring Man in the upper left, the third sentence begins, “He Man was cast down by the Prophet Therion….” Presumably you meant to write “The Man” and the wrong letter was capitalized…otherwise it sounds like Therion cast down an 80s cartoon. : )

    Also, in your text you name the Great River Wíyel with an acute accent, and this appears in capitals for “Gulf of Wíyel” at the top of the inset map. But the same map gives “R. Wiyel” in capitals without the diacritical, and “Wiyel Mioro” is also missing the í. Not sure if there’s a linguistic subtlety there or just an oversight.

    Apart from these extremely minor points, the overall map is glorious. The more I look, the more deft touches I find. Well done, a thousand times over!

    Well spotted, I've fixed these now as a final FINAL change. The river is pronounced similar to "while", but I changed the spelling from Weil to Wiyel, which I then realised had to be spelled Wíyel in the local language, hence some inconsistencies. Anyway hopefully it's all fixed - any more problems I'm going to put down to inworld "printers errors"!
