The Trackless Sea

I hate publishing unfinished maps. If I do they're only, normally missing a room or two but this one is missing a lot. I'm publishing it because its on the way to the Lost City - one of my goals is to be able to walk there and have everything mapped. In time I'll come back to this and finish it off but, right now, I'm too frutstrated to finish this one.

I've added a little extra notation as follows. As well as the normal north/south/east/west markers I've added n,s,e and w. If it appears by an exit to a room, taking that exit will move you to the corresponding room, not the room you thought you were going to, for example:

      s
      FU
      |
     eBA-GNw

Going north from FU will take you south to BA. Going west from BA will in fact take you east to GN and, finally, going east from GN will take you west to BA. I hope it's not too confusing but you should see the maps without it! I've also made all the room abbreviations capitalized to make the n,s,e and w markers more obvious.

Any room exit marked with a '*' means going out of that room, in that direction takes you back into the same room.

The maps didn't fit together very well either, so I've had to split them up. The Trackless Sea fits all around the Central Plain but, like many supposedly 'tricky' maps it's just awkward. Moving from A to B (as long as the rooms don't move) is only ever a list of directions, why some people make the maps horrible is beyond me.

All the T? rooms are part of the Trackless Sea. The K? rooms are part of the King's Road and any C? room is part of the Central Plain. If you move to a King's Road or Central Plain room, look at the partial map to see where to move next. If you move to a Trackless Sea room, look at the Sea maps to see where to move to.

If you'd like to make a quick run to this zone, we recommend the following directions, starting at The Common in Shadowdale: 9sws3ws2w2s2w3sws5w2sws2w3s6wswsw2s2w2sws2wsw5seses 5e5sw4s2w2s2w2nwn3wswsws2w2n6wn2wsws7ws2w2s2w3sw.
