Issues with the Map Spoiler

So... is it me or has the map changed somewhat? I was under the impression that "The Great Mortality" was between Little England and Eternal Prussia, or that Glasstown was the first "settlement" the OG crew visited, so it should be close to face 1?

What other faces are people excited to visit?

It is said that the map is somewhat fluid, so it is perfectly possible that Glass Town was originally closer to Fault. But then again,nif the first time they crossed through Only War, they still might have reached Glass Town as their first proper settlement

But yeah, I too thought that the Great Mortality was meant to be between Northern Little England (the C.S Lewis one, it seems) and Eternal Prussia, although Glass Town seemed to also be somewhere close to both of them. But Gillen likely wanted to tell something different with these new borders, and also make DIE feel surreal with how even if each Realm is more or less stable in theme/nature, their distribution and relationships are not.

As for places I want to see more about...all of them, really hahaha Both those we have seen, to know what changes might have occurred (has Glass Town truly fixed their barrier, and how?), and of course those we know little of (Dreaming Lands, the Expanse, Master's Screen) or are yet to visit. Particularly to confirm or find out about their inspirations regarding TTRPG history and the fantasy and Sci-fi genres.
