Revision as of 21:47, 6 October 2004

This Where's Where article is an attempt at establishing geographical facts about Ghyll; it does not record other facts. For example, it records that the Evesque Valley is well-irrigated (and therefore must have plenty of streams), but it does not record that it used to play host to Aelfants.

Map of Ghyll: Based on this survey of the geography of Ghyll, we've produced a tentative draft map of Ghyll for scholars to review.

  • Avazian Ruins (building)
  • Shallow Gulf (gulf)
