Description
This is Esmeralda... a planet where humans are known as 'Whim-folk', and where antelopes dance, dogs paint, squirrels cook, spiders play music on their web-strings, and dragons are known more for their string-section singing voices than for their fire breath. And where, of course, there dwells one cantankerous little Whim who is barely visible in the grand scheme of it all, a shadow hidden in shadows, a dark little speck among all the wondrous, colorful fantasy... if she only knew how much bigger than that her destiny is... she'd only grumble even more. But no hiding from THAT, I'm afraid... no matter how dark the shadows she hides in...

Esmeralda is to be the setting of my next big story project after the book I'm about to publish (no, it is NOT the setting of the book... it's the NEXT project ). So I've been developing it extensively as of late. This map is only the first go... it will likely develop even further, probably making this map outdated in time. The time for the general public to know more, much more, about this world and its inhabitants will come in time... but for now, a sneak peek of sorts.

*... There's a kingdom in that spot... I'm just not entirely sure what it's called yet. When I get more info, I'll update this. (EDIT: I know what that Kingdom is called now... it's called 'Din-Aurkann'. Just let me gather the incentive to update the map itself... )

The light blue lines in the ocean are the edges of major tectonic plates... just in case anyone was wondering why those were there. I needed to know where the mountain ranges were going to go.

That big continent on the left, the Veiled World... you actually can't see most of it... nor do you need to, in fact. Just know that it wraps all the way around the sphere to meet with that little *... peninsula in the upper right, and that nothing plot-related really happens there (not to my knowledge anyway).
