Darkblood’s Known World, 8 miles per hex, Grid S2E3
A couple of months after finishing the first three rows, Ricardo posted the first tile of a fourth row to his Mystara’s Map Navigator. This time he started with the westernmost tile, adding mainland Thyatis and the edge of Minrothad.

Chronological Analysis
This is a fan-made map. It was published in 2001. The updated Atlas version of this map is split between: Minrothad, 8 miles per hex and Thyatis, 8 miles per hex. See also Appendix C for annual chronological snapshots of the area. For the full context of this map in Mystara’s publication history, see the upcoming Let’s Map Mystara 2001. (Please note that it may be some time before the project reaches this point.)
The following lists are from the Let’s Map Mystara project. Additions are new features, introduced in this map; Revisions are changes to previously-introduced features; Hex Art & Fonts track design elements; and finally Textual Additions are potential features found in the related text. In most cases, the Atlas adopts these textual additions into updated and chronological maps.
Under Construction
Revisions
- Spellings — Ricardo spelled Dawn of the Emperors’ Trevanion River as Trevarion River. He also had Alfisle instead of GAZ9’s Alfeisle. These were most likely simple misspellings.
