The remake of a map a friend of mine drew for his campaign, in which I'm currently playing. Remade it, because I'm running his campaign for another group. :)
Tiora is a small village in Södermark in the northern part of The Northern kingdom of Lotia.

Cyrillic script - Ukrainian or Russian?
A well planned village :)
How about a scale bar?
The Cyrillics will be originally Bulgarian, of course, as it was they who created the script, back in the 9th-10th centuries 😎.
Puzzled as to why the title isn't also in Cyrillics though (other than to help out most Forum readers here, that is!)?
This one is Russian. The easiest way to understand what language the text is written in is to look for i (Ua) or ы (Ru).
Thank you! A friend of mine is really good at planning and writing (DMing).
Yes, this one is missing. Though now I'm obliged to add it in the 2nd revision, when my second group will start this adventure. :)
The use of non-Cyrillic text serves a purely decorative purpose. The people of The Northern kingdom of Lotia speak Njord — a fantasy version of Norwegian and Swedish (both of them sound fantasy enough to me as they are). So "Byn" means village and "grund. 2061 fr. K" means founded in 2061 from the founding of Kaiserhelm (the first human city in the world). I'm not very consistent on this — both maps I linked in the first post have labels written in some runic font. That's because dwarves have a lot of influence over the country.

My goodness! 2 groups! You really are quite an enthusiast. I hope your players appreciate the care you take with your maps :)
This is very nice indeed!
