    Getting a bit close on time, and I'm not sure whether I can handwrite all of the notes I'd like to in those boxes, and may have to resort to a font. But we'll see!
    The text boxes feel like the pop off the paper too much also.

    Gonna have to get a move on tomorrow.

    Managed to find a font which isn't hugely dissimilar to my hand, should serve in getting these text boxes filled.

    Trying to wrap this up over today & tomorrow. Not sure if I'm starting to miss the brief now as this has become somewhat of a third party strategic report on the 3 settlements (including the location of Shiyan's military units)
    I suppose the prophecy still eludes to the eventual domination of Shiyan in the region, but I'll let you all make what you will of it

    I've had a ton of fun over this month playing around with this map, I may continue with this particular map in between my studies as there are a few bits I wish I could have completed before I ran out of time.
    I'm fairly new to the whole cartography game, but this has been very helpful in highlighting some weaknesses (how I represent settlements & keeping a consistent style are two that I'd like to address!)

    I'd like to hear what people think of this map to see if you all confirm my thoughts on it.

    Now then, time to take a good look at the other entries to marvel in their greatness.

    You may see me next month!
