Ramelin’s Redstone, 8 miles per hex
Jose shared this map to his Pinterest in February 2016, alongside maps for Helskir, Westrourke, and Hillvale. Most of the area shown on this map appeared in TM2; to this Jose referenced fan maps, particularly Francesco Defferrari’s Central Isle of Dawn, to add some more details. Finally, he gave two unnamed lighthouses appropriate new names.
