Detailed map of Saird

Posted on August 9, 2021

Here is a far more detailed map of Saird, which gives an idea how densely populated this lowlands here are. Lots of villages! And the Daughter’s Road running from Jillaro to Filichet is going to be the symbol of Saird for most people. Over 250 years old, this is an incredible monument of magic and engineering. No wonder Hwarin Dalthippa is a goddess!

Map of Saird

Now something I find particularly interesting on this map is that we get Furthest in the very southeast corner. You can’t really talk about the Lunar Provinces without mentioning Furthest, which is the jewel in the Provincial Crown. As I have mentioned before, Furthest is one of the most Lunar cities in the Lunar Empire, built to glorify the Lunar Way and extend the Reaching Moon. Interestingly, that means that the area around Furthest has some of the deepest Lunar roots on the map – only Jillaro is comparable.

Now it is only about 170 or so km between Furthest and Mirin’s Cross, but that is still about the distance between Rome and Capua.

So if you think of Saird as about 190 km by about 190 km (36k km2) you get something a little bigger than Belgium or a little smaller than Brandenburg. It is the cockpit of Peloria, where Dragon Pass and lowland Peloria like to fight their wars.

Is Aggar considered part of Saird? Part of it is. Most of it is not.
