Do you have a map for the world of the darkblade series?
Andy Peloquin
Hey Felipe, great question!
I have purposely AVOIDED creating a map of Einan because the minute I do, that's when I'm locked into the EXACT layout of the continent and all its many kingdoms and empires and city-states.
For the sake of creativity and building a more epic world, I like the ability to add new areas as I need or as adds to the story. For example, being able to explore Ghandia in Awakener or heading to the Nyslian wine country in future books/series.
Maybe one day, when I'm done with Darkblade and the Hunter has gone across his world-spanning adventure, I will make a map. But for now, the only map exists in our heads.
