btw, the diary story entries are great. There are a few errors/typoes but nothing much that matters and nothing you wouldn't see in someone's diary. Nice touch.
Thanks Ascension, Jax. Yes I wrote the words. Words have always been easy for me. It's cartography this is hard.

I second the appreciation of the spine -- it's perfect. The diary is great, thanks for letting us see the words! This is shaping up to be a very fine entry.

Thank you kindly for the encouragement. I did go through and correct spelling errors as our narrator, being a wizard, would be more precise and exacting than I was. I also added some props to round out the scene.

Like the coins, where did you come up with those?

Like most things, much grunt work in Google.

Minor adjustments and added a magnifying glass to the set piece. I know it's a sin of excess, but the opportunity to play with the visual distortions of a glass is too much wonky goodness for me to resist.

Beautiful work, Imm (as always), what fonts did you use for the map and the text? I really like them.
The map was HamletOrNot, which I found to be versatile enough to do the whole thing. The journal entries were Aquiline 2. I looked hard for a spidery script that was very precise and meticulous, the product of how a vigorously disciplined mind handles routine tasks. I couldn't find one. Aq2 however is spidery and has a strong antique feel to it. Almost-but-not-quite effeminate. Perhaps the term I'm looking for is "prissy".
