OOC thread: Festivals are Good for Business
Please put all OOC conversation in this thread unless it is topical to a prior OOC thread!

I'm happy to pronounce Distant Echos officially begun! Let's have fun, everyone! (And thanks for letting me ST for you.)

Re: OOC thread: Festivals are Good for Business
For everybody's reference of where things are taking place:

Falan and Trademeet are non-canonical things I have placed in the map, myself. Trademeet lies pretty much due south of Greyfalls, on the northern bank of the Yanaze river. Falan's effective western border lies between 100 and 150 miles east of Trademeet, and the kingdom extends north from the Yanaze river for about 100 miles at its greatest N-S extent, down to about 50 miles at its narrowest. It's widest in the west and narrower as it goes east and approaches the Rock and Meander rivers. The capital actually is nearer that junction, despite being in the narrower portion. It's smaller N-S-wise there because of pressure from Ma Ha Suchi's beastmen and an inability to truly tame lands closer than two weeks' travel from his nameless lair.

I need to figure out a good editing program to take the map of creation I'm using, snip out the area between the Lesser Rock River, the Rock River, and the Yanaze River, and edit in these things so people have a larger-scale reference.

For a sense of scale, Trademeet is actually not a "city" so much as a "large town" with a lot of outlying farms and settlements that wouldn't count even as villages, and its influence extends for no more than half a week's travel (roughly 40 miles) from its limited walls.

Falan is actually roughly the size of West Virginia, though longer and narrower.
