Mark’s Karameikos, 8 miles per hex v2
Fourteen years after his first fragmentary map of Karameikos, Mark produced this map. I have marked them as versions, but really the previous one, made in MS Paint, was just a sliver of central Karameikos, whereas this one, made in Paint.NET, actually includes far more. This is likely because this map was an expansion of his new Alfheim map, and together they were simply trials on the way to a new full Known World map — which he would produce a few months later.
Strangely enough, this map reverses some edits Mark had made in his previous versions of Karameikos. For example, Kelvin now appears in its GAZ1 location, rather than relocated to the riverfork one hex to the south. And the Barony of Threshold is no longer marked. These are likely due to the large time difference between the maps rather than a deliberate change of mind.
For more on Mark’s first Paint.NET style, see the post for his full Known World map from September 2019.
