    Welcome to the Challenge XCali. Nice backstory, good start on the map!

    The funny thing about this sentence is that when I look at your avatar, sometimes I see a ninja drawing his katana and sometimes I see a guy rowing his boat!

    Wait, is it NOT a guy rowing a boat?



    The larger map looks extremely swampy.

    Thanks! Hehe, I wanted to set the map up with a little story. Maybe it can serve as a good adventure hook.
    Hahaha! That is so funny! It makes me wonder if I should reveal what it is or not.

    Hehe, makes you wonder eh?

    Yeah, the larger one was how I started, but then I chose a section which I'm going to map for this challenge.

    So, for this I started some basic shading for the land and added lineart. Which consists of the main ruins and the forward tents of the party that arrived to the mysterious place.

    The grid blocks are 70x70 pixels, and 140x140 pixels respectively. Though I am still wondering what number of feet each should represent for this map. Any ideas?
