    Default City of Lost Souls

    There are places in the world where the souls of the dead and lost still roam. Those places are rare to find and if you find one the chances are that you never leave. This is the City of Lost Souls situated in a river delta between the countries Truscia and krug in the Etrakien world. The town is surrounded by ancient ruins from a since long forgotten past. But among the ruins the souls of the dead still walk, or at least that is what people say.

    To find your way through the labyrinth that the river delta form you have to follow one of the guiding boats. It is said that only the one that knows the true name of the city can find its way here. And the secret is well protected by the selected few who knows it.

    The city itself prospers from the diversity of old artifacts that are found in the ruins that surrounds it, and then sold to the highest bidder. It also harbors some of the world’s most famous pirates that pay well for the protection that the city gives. More than once enemy fleets have tried to find its way up through the delta, still none have succeeded.

    The map is done in City designer 3 (CD3) from Profantasy combining the included styles A and B with the latest annual city style by Jon Roberts (Torstan). The end result from CD3 has then been quite heavily edited in Photoshop, where the labeling also has been done.

    And at last a little question for the curious ones, can you spot which two real world cities that has inspired the map?
