Dragon 183 Eastern Herath, 8 miles per hex
Herath is the gateway to the Orc’s Head Peninsula, with the Wildwoods at the centre of the neck connecting the peninsula to the rest of the Savage Coast. It’s a fascinating nation of wizards that hides a dark secret. The map in Dragon 183 was labelled “Eastern Herath”; the western region appeared in Dragon 196, but only at 24 miles per hex. It was never fully mapped at 8 miles per hex, although much of it was detailed in Red Steel in 1994.
The map introduced two new innovations: shoals, marked by a cream coloured terrain; and a mountain hex with a single lone peak. While shoals would appear again in future Princess Ark maps, the lone mountain hex only ever appeared on this map.
