Newest Updates in the World Map





Mithia is filled with echoes from the past. Sailors and bards alike travel the world in search of heroes, legends, and adventures. Though few of these travelers will ever be a part of their own adventure, every spectator to one of the exuberant stories of slaying dragons, escaping periless traps, or enearthing an ancient dungeon, undoubtedly fantasizes about being the brave knight that rushes into battle with sword and shield, or the powerful wizard who calls forth tremendous god-like power, or the cunning ranger who finds the way forward, or, perhaps, even the dasterdly rogue who accompanies the party of adventurers just for some extra coin.

Though the sea that separates the continents of Mithia were vast, and many cities spread so wide across the lands, these stories reached the ends of the earth nearly in the blink of an eye. For all the kings, the thieves, the wizards, and especially the common folk, were all fond of sharing the tales of recent conquests and ancient legends.
Arrotha is a rather small but important continent. For Arrotha was in the center of Aeror to the west and Straephus to the east. To the south was Etoloth and to the distant north was Tailus. Arrotha was a central hub for trade among sea-faring merchants, and that brought a lot of wealth and development to the land. In fact, only Zabrun, the largest continent in the eastern hemisphere did not trade directly with Arrotha.


So now that the geography of the world map is complete, I am slowly beginning to add in flavor and details to my world. You can see some of the sections that I have done on various world locations in the navigation section under "World of Mithia." I'm using some of my older maps as a guide, but I am adding in locations on the map only as they become more fleshed out, as having a bunch of cities on the map that are only a name and a location doesn't really add much to the world. So I'll try to continue to update this below to show where these things are more clearly. I think I am going to continue to stick to the dot/label strategy for labeling.
