Coordinates

(2361,675,Lerris's home in the city of Waundernaught on the isle of Recluce) chapter I

(2361,705) need to fill in the REAL coordinates for travel via east-west road then travel along the main road, inserting this point for now to keep it from going cross country.

(2225,759,The City of Nylan)

(2043,768)Boat turns in the harbor.

(2004,804,Freetown) There are 2 freetowns on the map. One is coastal and has a label of Lydiar. Assuming this is the correct freetown since the ship docked here
[cb]I think the uppercase Freetown is the name of the "regency".

[cb] taking a guess on Hrisbarg .. I'm considering it to be "due" west .. Lerris states that (of North, South, and West roads) he takes the one that doesn't parallel the coast
[cb] made Hrisbarg (right-hand - north - of wizard's road) before nightfall after leaving Freetown that morning
(1964,804,Hrisbarg) Kaystone at the west gate of Freetown says 40K

[cb] "as we rode westward" .. "the road to Howlett was worse than the road from Freetown had been" .. "I missed the desolate wizard's road" (so, wizard's road must have gone south at Hrisbarg)
[cb] reached border station about midday from Hrisbarg -- eased off road to go around station and found the spot where ___ used the poles
[cb] got to Howlett at dusk ... call it another 40K?  traveled slower but longer .. maybe 30K?  no K-stones mentioned .. talked twice in the morning about 5k blocks .. call it 30
[cb] (guessing) 30K west of Hrisbarg .. but, then, that makes too long a journey from Howlett to the turn off for Frven .. changing this to 40k
(1924,800,Howlett) approx. 40K west of Hrisbarg

[cb] they take the "left road" (could be straight on west or more southerly) as they leave Howlett
[cb] no clue how long they're out of Howlett, they stop at a kaystone to the left of the road that says "5K"; Justen says the detour through the Fairhaven ruins will add a half-day to their "another day" to Weevett
[cb] I'm guessing just guessing, but (other than the time Justen normally allots for himself to recover from the trauma) it must be nearly perpendicular to the current path in order for the 10k detour to add a half-day (when riding)
[cb] so, I'm gonna map the kaystone as 5k north of Frven and make that a stop-point (even though they were only there for a couple minutes)
[cb] (1) due to the fact that they road they're on is going from Howlett to Weevett, I'm gonna move the travel-line north a bit - plus - I need to get some distance between the three dots in close proximity to Frven
(1880,790,Kaystone outside Frven) Justen asks Lerris if he wants to see the ruins

(1864,805,Ruins of the white city of Fairhaven) Justen takes Lerris through the dead city.

(1860,785,Wayfarer's hut) Justen recuperates from the Frven ordeal and starts teaching Lerris.

[cb] Justen teaches Lerris how to defend himself against Antonin and they end up spending a second night
[cb] sun "high" by the time they get to Weevett
(1827,771,Weevett)

[cb] their rooms are reserved at the Weavers' Inn
[cb] "something to eat before we ride over to the southern gathering"; "two days here, and another two days at the gathering outside Vergren"
(1857,765,gathering outside Vergren)

[cb] "fourth day wasn't quite as bad, although it was after dark when we return to the Weavers' Inn"
(1825,771,Weevett - Weavers' Inn - 2nd stay)

[cb] Justen says it's "more than a day" (from Weevett) to Jellico .. I'm guessing because of the mountains .. because it's not that far on the map
(1797,755,Jellico)

(1698, 743, Carsonn) Chapter 37. Lerris flees Jellico after using magic. Comes to road marker called Carsonn which is a 4 day ride to Passera

(1600, 732, Passera)

[cb] After Passera, I finally stopped in a crossroads with no name and slept in the stable with Gairloch. [guess] (1527, 712, crossroads)

[cb] another day .. in the middle .. the River Gallos, nearly a kay across. another night .. followed .. the Prosperity Inn in Neblitt .. [guess] (1443, 693, Neblitt)

[cb] end of the third day brought me to the low hills leading up to Fenard ..

(1335,678,Fenard) Sets up as a journeyman woodworker.

(1590, 837, Tellura) Chapter 59: Waystation, after encounter with unnamed white wizard

(1563, 855, Meltosia) Chapter 59: Stops overnight en route to Kyphrien

(1470, 900, Kyphrien) Chapter 60: Krystal has found a place as sub-commander

[cb] Ch 63 - The way the Westhorns angled .. meant .. we had to ride two days to reach the foothills that almost matched the Little Easthorns in size.

The first night we actually stayed in a small inn in a town -- Upper River.

guessing - (1410, 900, Upper River) Ch 63 - going to find the wizard's road

(1330, 880, Quessa)

[cb] Ch 63 - by mid-morning .. still 30 kays from the foothills beneath those massive slopes (Westhorns) - tries to dismiss Yelena; by nightfall, we still seemed scarcely closer; "I am not a great order-master"; "Then there are none."

(1290, 810, long-deserted farm)

[cb] Ch 63 - mid-morning .. outlier's body; dismissing the guards; Ch 64 - Another 5 kays beyond the hill where I helped bury the unnamed .. outlier .. barely in the edge of the foothills, the old road crossed the wizard's road.

(1285, 762, crossing)

(1245, 760, canyon) [cb] Ch 64 - on the way to Antonin's
