Great article! While this looks very barebones atm, I definitly see that its off to a great start! the map looks quite nice and i can see how effective it would be for a dnd campaign. For expansion, I would say that you can do some general expansion on the towns assets, defences and etc. There are a few typos here and there but i dont mind them. the artwork looks amazing too! Congratulations and keep up the great work!

Yeah it's pretty bare bones, xd the goal was to give some basic info about the town I might expand on it later but I would like to build out more important things first, like events I reference here and there and articles about countries and things like that.
