Study the map well. Although you see only a small portion of the land as you travel, the Kingdom itself is a sprawling place. Broken by mountain ranges and split by the sea, Alefgard is not easily crossed. Each town is an island of humanity where you can restore your HP and buy needed supplies. But the wild forests, deserts and swamps are always near at hand. You do not defeat the land, you merely deal with it. Aided by this map, you should be able to begin planning your journeys. In time, even the most distant points will be as familiar to you as the hilt of your sword or the ugly dace of a Drakee. Remember to write down the secrets you discover as you progress.
