Zendrolion’s Traladara 929-480 BC, 8 miles per hex

The third of seven maps in Simone’s Threshold Magazine #1 History of Karameikos article, this map showed Traladara during its dark age. The Beastmen Invasion was over, the Hutaaka vanished into their hidden mountain kingdom. However, this was the start of the Dark Age of the Traldar. The section of the article begins:

Even with the gnolls gone, the land would not know peace.

And frankly, that pretty much sums it all up. This was the lowest point for the Traldar. For more details, check out Simone’s article — it’s a good one.

The map itself followed the style of the others in the series. In this entry, there were a lot more migrations marked than the previous two maps had.
