"Blown on blossom smoke with mazy motion, drift we
Through caverns measureless to man, into a sunless sea."

The whole map for Thou Shalt Not Suffer The Wycce works on this principle. Chris noticed that the Nottinghamshire map displayed in the castle showed towns in the form of landmarks-as-seen-approaching-by-foot, and mimicked it.

While they both have churches, one displays the Crook of St. Asaph and the other shows the Cross of the Immortal.

In her spare time, Morgan has been working on a new Doomsong one shot and it has the best-ever NPC yet... "Stroke of Luck" will hit Patreon later this year, after we've messed around with jousting rules a little more 🏇🕷️🎂 #Horror&Heresy #OneShot #TTRPG #MedievalHorror
Title: Stroke of Luck
Subtitle: At long last, Baron and Baroness Roake have borne a son. To celebrate, they are hosting a tournament. No expense has been spared: jousting and feasting will fill the day. And yet, a servant lies dead and the baroness is uneasy...Sabine: Agile young woman who jugles fruit while riding a one-wheeled implement. This device has never been seen before in Painyme. She calls it an 'unus-trindle.' She will agree to act as a distraction in exchange for money.
