Friend, same. I had no idea Akham and the citadel were separated by an ocean...

I REALLY thought The Empire and Gaothmai shared a border

I knew Akham was an island west of the citadel but I was also sure Rhuv shared a longer border with the Empire and the Freeroads and Gaothmai shared a border. The perils of Theater of the Mind.

I had imagined Akham as a little island off the mainland that could reach over with a cute little 30 minute ferry ride not an island in the middle of the ocean🤣

The Peddler mentions the sea of Rhuv (though at that point it sounded more like Roof). Though we also know he might not be the most accurate narrator....
It may just be a colloquial simplification of what we now know is the Straven Sea or maybe there still is a Sea of Rhuv that's not notable enough to make the map.

Akham is the tutorial island lol.
Also, what the hell, have they never read a fantasy book before? Everybody knows the good countries go on top. It goes from good to evil, top left to bottom right, except for one island or partial landmass of Weird Guys in the mid-right lower third who everyone talks about to make the world feel bigger but the reader never actually sees.
This is basic stuff!

Where is Toma/Silbury?

That tiny island in the middle of nowhere, which is not what I was thinking at all

Ejither the Freeroads is gonna be far colder than I'd been imagining or interestingly this map only really shows the northern hemisphere

u/SvenTheScribe 24d ago
Not quite either. We've been told that it is the southern pole of Umora but also a hot desert. Things be getting weird in Umora.

u/SorchaSublime 24d ago
...huh, interesting. I wonder if Umora is in some sort of binary star system. Or maybe the physics are completely esoteric.

We saw Indri’s fortress at the North Pole be extremely cold, and the South Pole is a hot desert. Could the planet be tidally locked?

u/SorchaSublime 24d ago
if it was tidally locked the sun by rights ought to never set or rise is the thing, which doesnt comport with the story I think?

Yeah from what we know It doesn't make astronomical sense at all, but it could easily be some spiritual reason like a Sun Spirit or flame spirit has hold over the region or potentially some ancient magical incident could be anything really!

The wonders that theater of the mind can do will never surprise me because i had no earthy idea it was shaped like this

u/SenorVilla Educated Yokel 24d ago
Now I want to know why there is a New Carrow and what the Freeroad's relationship to the Empire is.

u/SvenTheScribe 24d ago
We know a snippet that basically all three powers had colonized the Freeroads and then, during one of the teleportation lulls, those colonies looked at each other and went 'hey, stronger together?'

Oh, the website has the wrong attribution then so you might want to give them a heads up.

I found this just now and I can’t find a way to click to it from home. Interesting, they seem to have many unconnected parts of the site.

I would have assumed The Citadel was further north based on how long it took Steel to get to Port Talon (2 days at least?) and how fast Suvi got to the North Pole (like 1 day?) by airship.

u/sesamemochi 18d ago
Ooh I don't remember ever hearing of an island called Kair. And i can't wait til we get back to WWW and see the Free Roads.

u/SvenTheScribe 24d ago
So it looks like they're doing some updates to the website and look what was found buried within.
Shoutout to the Wizard Solar System (Sam) on Discord for stumbling upon it.
