    There wasn't mention of labels beyond the legend, so I will make the first-draft assumption that those would be added later.
    This map has the unfortunate problem that the linework isn't consistent due to variations in the scale of some map elements.
    It could probably benefit from something like Celtic-style knotwork for a border, possibly done as ivy. As soon as I find the software that can do that (or get time to write some myself), I'll probably do that.

    Looks like a good start. I wonder, are all the elements premade (by you) or are you just damn fast at sketching? love those trees

    To me they look like the Mike Schley art pack from CC3 but just the linework.

    I used the Mike Schley inks style from CC3+. It has a couple of nice craters in it and I also felt that a black and white map would be more suited for standard print reproduction. Having said that, of course, there is too much detail in a lot of the elements for them to reproduce well in something like a paperback format.

    I see a tree that looks like it's stepping into a lake! Otherwise, great start.

    I want to know.where you found that castle!!!
    Like a thief in the night
    she comes with no form
    yet tranquility proceeds
    the accursed storm...

    Everything on the map is the Schley inks style in CC3+.
