The Elder Lands - Chapter 0 Maps and Illustrations

Hey guys. This post will include illustrations that could help your imagery of some medieval stuff like a motte-and-bailey, in case you’ve never heard of them. But mostly, this page will be for maps, which I’ve created several of. You could check those maps out right away, or wait until they come up in the story. Currently, they contain no spoilers, I’ll post warnings if there’re any future edits that could spoil events.

Also, the maps are rough depictions. They’ll give you general idea of what’s there and more details will be written in the story when needed. But don’t take them as gospel when it comes to scale or specific shapes. Sir Golan Zesh’s fief, for example, is very small in comparison to other fiefs.

Here’s an illustration which I do NOT own of what a typical motte-and-bailey looks like. This is not exactly what’s present in the story, but it will give you an idea of what’s there.

The next one is a map of Sir Golan Zesh’s territory.

This one is the Kingdom’s map. It’s sparse on terrain elements. I’ve only added the parts that could soon be useful. This also includes towns, small/medium sized cities, and villages.

And this is the Elder Lands map. Also missing smaller terrain and settlements. Only what’s necessary is shown.
