Here is my first serious attempt at a map. I would love any critiques or advice people may have. Also I would love some suggestions on how people would show cities / villages on a map like this, I have tried a few things but so far I haven't been happy with any of the results.

Also I need to add a gaping chasm to the desert / bad lands area. Anyone have advice on how to depict that?
