Thibault’s Norwold South, 8 miles per hex

A few months after finishing Heldann, Thibault expanded the map to include southern Norwold and the northern tip of the Isle of Dawn. Together with the upcoming northern section, this map would then cover the whole of Norwold.

The Heldann portion is identical to the Heldann map, but the other areas are new to Thibault’s Hexmapper series. Though of course they are based on his previous Grid maps of those areas.

Beneath the final map is a work-in-progress version from a week or two earlier, showing where Geoff Gander had suggested settlements on the Isle of Dawn. These are present on Thibault’s finished map, but the labels were not, so I have included it here for reference.

November 2024 Update: I have added Geoff’s additional labels, along with two missing settlements (which I presumed to be towns). This combined version appears first below.

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 2005. (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.
