I know, I just suck at drawing. Even with proper "map creation" tools... >.< And trust me, I've tried... often. And will try again soon. >.>
Well, so far we've got "the North" which is, I assume, North of Qishu. Qishu itself, and a desert region. It's not too much to keep straight. There were a couple times in TRS2 where I thought of a map, but at that scale it's kind of silly anyway.

Technically, that would be easier. Just take a galaxy map, and put things in random locations. Who is to tell are they right or wrong? >.> Also random fun fact, the last world visited in TRS2 (pre-epilogue) is an actual space co-ordinate (unless I fudged it up which is highly plausible). It's basically the very tip of Sagitarius arm if I recall correctly.

Thankfully in fantasy world that is on par with medieval times on tech, even if there's magic, you can just make very simple and rough maps. No need for too much detail, accurate maps were not a thing until surprisingly recent times, and in some cases the governments spread maps with false details. Reason for those false/extremely inaccurate details was usually to hope your enemy believed those maps and tried to attack from a route that puts them in bad position.

You are overestimating my ability to even draw a straight line... :p

US/Canada border. :)
But in the old days borders were more like the Star Trek TOS neutral zone than sharp lines.
That's because in the old days, borders were drawn with terrain features in mind. Basically what is good landmark for border, that was chosen when the borders were drawn. Rivers, mountains etc... were ideal in use for border landmarks. Of course the stronger nation usually had heavy influence in how those landmarks were chosen etc....

Ahahah, it's nice to know you thought about it before.

But you know what a paint map would be fun (not very professionnal but fun ^^) and would help a bit XD

Honestly it isn't a problem about asking about it, it's on the list of things that "done when I get the chance and the end result doesn't piss me of". Take that as it might happen someday, but I won't make any promises regarding it.
