Now this next step is a little bit different, and it’s pretty cool in its own right.\u00a0 The map was created in Inkarnate, which is an awesome tool, and I recommend it to anyone who is trying to make maps for their fantasy world, whether its for a sprawling book series, or even D&D.\u00a0 But there’s a second tool that works so well in tandem with Inkarnate, and that’s World Anvil.\u00a0 World Anvil is able to do some pretty cool things, and I have been learning how best to use it, so I’ve made some layers on the map that are interactive, and allow someone who is interested in the world of Tellest to come in and see a bit more about where the stories they’re reading are taking place.<\/p>\n
Below, I have three layers additions that can be toggled which show the artifacts that we’ve explored so far in the stories, the cities that we’ve seen or read about, and where characters originally hailed from.\u00a0 In some of these cases, the layers are accessible only to Tellest patrons, who get to see some secret information.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Well, that about wraps us up for today, but as you can imagine, we’re going to continue this treatment across the board with the other continents of Tellest as well.\u00a0 There’s a huge world to explore, and we’ll get to every nook and cranny before it’s all over.\u00a0 See you on this next leg of the journey!<\/p>\n

Howdy folks, and welcome to our first look at the maps of Tellest in a new style.\u00a0 Today, we’re going to look at Draconis, the continent that we’ve spent the most time in, using a map that I’ve created myself in Inkarnate, piggybacking off of the work Kay Fullmer did in bringing the world I […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":26847,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spay_email":"","footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false},"categories":[346],"tags":[848,313,47,312,2820],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/tellest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Featured-Draconis-Inkarnate.jpg","jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p1UVey-6YV","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tellest.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26841"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tellest.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tellest.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tellest.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tellest.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=26841"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/tellest.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26841\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":27948,"href":"https:\/\/tellest.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26841\/revisions\/27948"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tellest.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/26847"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tellest.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26841"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tellest.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26841"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tellest.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26841"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
