LoZompatore’s Tarylon Position

In this small series of maps from January 2006, Michele explored possible placements for CM5’s Tarylon and its surrounding “Wilderness”.

The positions are:

North-northwest across the Black Mountains from Lake Halli on the edge of the Great Waste.
North-northeast across the Black Mountains from Lake Halli on the edge of the Great Waste.
Northeast of the Kendach Escarpment in the central Isle of Dawn.
North of the Surshield Wall mountains in southeastern Bellissaria.
At the far eastern end of the Jennite Mountains in Skothar.

The area in question is both extremely small and rather generic, making it possible to fit in any of a great number of locations in Mystara.
