Timeken's Logs

With the discovery of new lands to the east of Rathnir, many nations decided to send out expeditions to explore the new world and to set up colonies. One of these expolers was Timeken who arrived with the Uldarashi expeditionary force. While the other members of the expedition made contact with the natives to establish a zone of no Rathnir colonization, Timeken's mission was to map the new world in order to present it to the cartographers guild. This map would be made to serve both the old and new world.

Detailed below are Timeken's logs

Log 1
Good day Rathnir, I have circumnavigated and mapped the first sea of the new world. This is the first step in my mission to map the new lands. So if you see me out there, please don't kill me I have a job to do.

Log 2
Another day another sea mapped. You can now see continents taking shape. I have run in to some natives on my travels some were nice others, not so much. I have come to call this new world Rumnir after the dead Emperor of my homeland, my he rest in peace.

Log 3
The more I explore and map this new world the more I realise how war torn the landscape of Rathnir is. I can only hope that once the settlers start ariving they will keep the beauty of Rumnir intact and not ravage it like they did Rathnir.

Log 4
I have received ill news from the Uldarashi expedition. Apparently they were hit hard by a group of bandits and lost most of their supplies and equipment. The natives seems to grow more agitated every day, although there are still thoese willing to trade for food, shelter and exchange information. I have gatherd that the locals refer to this land as Eldham, but if this is their name of the local area the continent or the entire world I don't know yet. For the time being I will continue to refer to the new world as Rumnir.

Log 5
There seems to be no big land mass in Rumnir. Every time I think I have discovered a proper continent it is broken up by seas and lakes. I did not expect the mapping to take this long, there are just too many lakes and they all lead to another sea. Going by the progress I have made I might have a finished map to present to the guild in about another year (5 irl days).

Log 6
Most of the southern parts of Rumnir have now been mapped. I must say that I have grown fond of these new lands, they are all so very different from the once back home. I am especially intrigued about these floating islands. As far as I can tell they don't use an active power source. Perhaps these areas are naturally rich in magic.

Log 7
I have done it! I have mapped every sea and coast line in Rumnir. There are still rivers I have not navigated yet and probably some islands that I missed, but over all the map is ready to be presented to the guild. It seems that the natives have agreed on an official name for this new world. They call it Eldham as I had previously heard but it is now also recognized by many nations in Rathnir which means it is what I will have to call the map. Although in my heart it will always be Rumnir.
