Ah such a nice Christmas theme... Sounds interesting.
Welcome to the challenge.
I was torn between like 3 different farms, a Christmas Trees farm with a cool hot chocolate, marshmellow compass, or a candy cane farm(Christmas Mood I guess.), but instead went the complete opposite. No draft yet, but will try and get a sketch up tonight.
Finnabair’s Flesh Farm
On the outskirts of the Darhollow Woods, nestled a top a path lined with stonewalls and fields, lays Finnabairs, a tiny stone cottage cut from the shadows of the darkest of trees. She is a witch, for who else would share the same woods as Gethan’s Grave. Over a thousand bodies lay in its hallowed grounds, with fresh graves dug daily. For it is said that in these woods their spirits can roam free, and all wish to be buried there.
Among the woods, where the sun doesn’t shine, she harvests the rarest of herbs, taken from the forests of stone, scraped from the statues of Medusa’s Gaze, or harvested from the vile swamps of decaying trees thousands of years old.
But rumor has it: What she harvests from her fields of lavender and clove, and from the forest’s deep, pales in comparison to what she farms in the caverns below.
A hidden chamber beneath her quaint little cottage leads beneath the graveyard. There she harvests the bodies. Too rotted and bones, she turns to skeletons. Flesh on bones, become zombies.
Hmmm, maybe I should have called it Finnabairs Decaying Flesh Farm.

Finally getting a base down I am somewhat happy with. Going for a top down map on the top half. Title, and possibly side view of the cottage in the middle. Bottom section will be map of the tunnels beneath the graveyard.

A constant struggle, but we are getting there - I think.
Worked on the border and added the start of the caves beneath the graveyard, where she harvests the bodies to raise her zombies and skeletons, who then in return harvest the more rare/dangerous ingredients for her foul alchemy.

The map is starting to shape up nice with a great backstory, and it is such a fun idea.

This is looking good. I like the forest style.

Going to be close, but I think I will get it done by tomorrow night. Not 100% on the fields and stone walls, but like where it is headed. Still have some work to do on them. Also need to do a little work on the cavern map below, then label the 5 key areas, and somehow get a legend type thingy in there, possibly a compass, although not really hung up on that.
