    If you want do do something easy that'll make it just that bit more awsome, why not put some sand and mud scattered about, maybe a sandy beach or a muddy area used as the god's muster field.

    I did add some small beaches to the islands in the southern 'sea', but the chewed up/muddy terrain is a good idea - especially in that large open area in the southwest with the bull icon (Falkyr - God of Battle).

    I also thought of adding a few roads leading to the Infinite Tower (Big Momma's house ;D) - not sure about that though.

    I'm just thinking Asgård when I see this. A musterfield like Idavallen is a must for any self respecting war-god
    Test the roads out, see if they look good.
    I still want a rimfall thou.. or maybe something like Bifrost.

    Well if you look at a map Marvel Comic's Asgard - you'll see that i used that as "inspiration".

    I'd need to come up with something completely different - don't want to copy Bifrost (Asgard) or the Infinite Stairway (Forgotten Realms) - to want to include that. I'll give it some thought.

    yeah yeah, thats the ticket.

    I was wondering if there was anything missing, but you hit that nail right on the head Hoel.

    Nice work SG. Would this be in addition to the Temple of the Exalted or replacing it? Just curious.

    Post Labels, Labels and more labels...

    OK, here's today's update...

    - Added the labels and moved some of the demesne's around a bit.
    - Added a new 'desert' island for Tempus Fugit - Demesne of Thempys; God of Time
    - Added the Colossus of Eternity he stands guard at...The bridge to Tempus Fugit
    - Added 'dirt'/broken terrain at the base of the mountains & the Fields of the Fallen

    This may very well be the final version unless a really, really cool idea pops up or I see typos, etc.

    Saw no glaring mistakes, but I don't know your spelling. The desert island was a nice touch, but I think it needs a really scary rope bridge. A dessert island would be cool too.

    Btw, isn't Illuvatar ripped right out of Tolkien mythology?

    Heh yeah, I think Eru Illuvatar is the master creator mentioned in the silmarillion.

    If it is, it wasn't intentional - I can always change it like I did for the CWBP, it's essentially the same pantheon with some name changes.

    Edit: After digging out my copy of Unfinished Tales it seems that Illuvatar is a Tolkien name, I try to stay away from those as much as possible so I think I'll change it and repost the update later tonight.
