Seriously thinking I need to draw out a map for myself to keep track of what we know about the geography of Hydaelyn. Are most of your sources item descriptions from in-game? I remember in FFXI we had zero idea about a lot of world geography save a handful of item descriptions. That is, until S-E gave us the world map around the time the Aht Urghan expansion arrived.
Yeah, much like XI, XIV's lore is very spread out in little snippets all over the place, so piecing it together is a ton of work. I was working on doing this myself, but then my laptop got stolen and I lost a huge amount of work on the project. Haven't really gotten around to picking it back up honestly.
As for a world map, I've actually conceptually made one to the best of my knowledge. Naturally, the continent shapes are theoretical, but Fernehalwes confirmed plate tectonics and continental drift, so I've actually shaped the continents with that in mind as if they fit together like puzzle pieces.
But we have enough lore to piece most things together.
